Cell Theory..
Matthias Scheiden was a German botanist who, along with Theodor Schwann, helped establish the cell theory. Scheiden's contributions include the discovery that plants are composed of cells, laying the foundation for modern cell biology and the cell theory.
to consider something alive (at least what i was taught) the organism has to replicate in the order DNA to RNA to Protein, cells are the smallest units that have this ability. virus have a different cycle typiclly going: modified RNA to DNA to RNA to Protein which is why they arent considered (yet) to being alive

The German biologist Theodor Schwann concluded that all animals are made up of cells, which contributed to the development of the cell theory. He also proposed that cells are the basic unit of structure and function in living organisms.
Theodore Schwann did not conclude all plants are made of cells. He concluded that all animals were made up of cells. However, Matthais Schlieden did conclude that all plants were made of cells. He concluded this in 1838.

Schwann cells are glia that myelinate the neurons of the Peripheral Nervous System
The German scientist Theodor Schwann concluded that all animals are composed of cells, and that cells are the basic building blocks of living organisms. This idea laid the foundation for the cell theory, which states that all living things are composed of cells.
