No , cells are not like empty rooms , they are filled with organelles .
Yes, rooms for monks are often referred to as cells. These rooms are simple living spaces where monks can meditate, pray, and rest. The term "cell" may also be used to signify the solitude and simplicity of a monk's lifestyle.
First cells were seen and described by Robert Hooke. He first looked at cork cells under a simple microscope, he noted that that cells look like tiny rooms that monks lived in. These tiny rooms were called cells and that's the reason for the name.
In latin, cell means compartment or little room. Robert Hooke discovered cells in cork (the bark of a particular tree). He observed small honeycomb-like structures. They reminded him of rooms. That is why he called them cells.

yes, a cloistered monk actually named them cells because they looked like individual rooms of a monastery.
Robert Hooke was the first scientist to observe cork cells in 1662 using a simple microscope he had built. He coined the term "cell" to describe the box-like structures he saw, reminiscent of small rooms monks lived in, known as cells.
Hooke found the cell when looking underneath a microscope at his home where he saw dead cells of a piece of cork. He named these cells because they looked like tiny rooms meaning cells.
He gave cells the name cells because he looked at a cork underneath a microscope and he thought it looked like the Monk's cells.
He was looking at a thing slice of cork and noticed little holes that looked like tiny rooms. He then used the word cells meaning "small room". Although the cells weren't alive.

Two of the first scientists to view cells were Robert Hooke and Anton van Leeuwenhoek. Well in 1663, Hooke observed the structure of a thin slice of cork using a compound microscope he had built himself. To Hooke, the cork looked like tiny rectangular rooms, which he called cells.
