How was cell discover?

Answer 1

The cell was discovered by Robert Hooke. Used a very simple microscope similar to a magnifying glass. He saw that the cork tissue he was looking at looked like it had many tiny rooms. The small rooms of monks were called cells and he said that is what this cork tissue looked like as well.

Answer 2

Depends on which cell you're talking about.

Anton van Leeuwenhoek famously described Animalcules in a letter to the Royal Society in 1676 - he is considered to be the father of Microbiology.

The Royal Society didn't initially accept his claims as single celled organisms hadn't previously been observed, he'd ground his own lenses and owned the most powerful microscopes of the time.

His discovery that small organisms reproduced in much the same way as larger organisms ran contrary to the widely accepted theory of Spontaneous generation, but it wasn't until 1859 that Louis Pasteur was able to develop an experiment to conclusively disprove the theory.

Answer 3

It was discovered in a cork slice, under a primitive microscope by Robert Hook.
