Leeuwenhoek was the first person to see anything under a microscope. He put pond water under the microscope and studied tiny animals swimming in the water and called them "animalcules" hope this helps!
Robert Hooke looked at cork cells through his crude microscope. In fact he was the one who coined the term cell, as he said the cork cells reminded him of the cells where monks lived.
Robert Hooke named the cell after he looked at a small slice of cork in a microscope
The microscope was first invented and used by Robert Hooke. He looked at slices of cork under the microscope and noticed that they look like the little rooms that monks used. These were called cells. And so came the term cells for what makes up tissues.
