Antonie Van Leeuwenhoek is the first who observe the tiny, unicellular living things but Robert Hooke is the one who confirmed Leeuwenhoek's observations and was the first to use the term cell.

Robert Hooke was also the first person to observe non-living cells.

Anton van Leeuwenhoek, saw the first LIVING cell. Many people give Robert Hooke the credit for seeing the first cell, although he saw the first cell, he observed a dead cork from a tree. So Robert Hooke saw the first DEAD cell

I think that the first person was Robert Hooke because he used Antony van Leeuwenhoek's invention which is the microscope to look for "things" in other things. He saw these box like thing in a piece of cork. They looked like jail cells so he called them cells. A few 50 years later Matthias schleiden discovered plant cells and then Theodor Sehwann discovered animal cells.
