Robert Hooke- saw dead cells of a piece of cork under a microscope. He named them cells because they looked like tiny rooms which means "cells"

Anton van Leeuwenhoek- first to see living cells under a microscope.

Theodore Schwann- said that all animals are composed of cells.

Matthias Schleiden- said that all plants are composed of cells.

Rudolf Virchow- said that all cells come from preexisting cells. (cell reproduction)

Who are some foreign and local scientists and their contributions?

Foreign scientists like Albert Einstein (theory of relativity) and Marie Curie (discovered radioactivity) made significant contributions to science. Locally, scientists like Elizabeth Blackburn (telomeres research) and Richard Feynman (quantum mechanics) have also made important contributions to their respective fields.


Enumerate the theories of nature of light?

Wave theory - light is a type of electromagnetic wave proposed by scientists like Maxwell and Huygens. Particle theory - light consists of particles called photons, advocated by scientists like Einstein and Planck. Wave-particle duality - the concept that light exhibits both wave-like and particle-like behavior, proposed by quantum mechanics.


Who invented the paleomagnetism theory?

No one person invented or developed the theory of paleomagnetism. Several different scientists contributed to the development of the theory of paleomagnetism.


Which Scientists disaprove Ptolemys geosentric theory of the universe?

Galileo and Copernicus were two of the scientists to disprove Ptolemy's geocentric theory of the universe. The Ptolemaic theory stated that the center was earth.


Why was Robert hooke an important figure in the development of the germ theory?

Robert Hooke was not directly involved in the development of the germ theory. He made contributions to the field of biology, particularly with his early work in microscopy and cell theory. The germ theory of disease, which states that microorganisms are the cause of many diseases, was developed by scientists like Louis Pasteur and Robert Koch in the 19th century.

Would you describe two contributions made by scientists so you could learn about cells?

the cell theory and the microscope


Why did he cell theory require many scientific contributions?

The cell theory required many scientific contributions because it was developed over time by multiple scientists, each adding new insights and evidence. Contributions from scientists like Robert Hooke, Matthias Schleiden, and Theodor Schwann led to the formulation of the three basic tenets of the cell theory. Collaboration and building upon each other's work were essential to refining and solidifying the cell theory.


When would scientists need to change a theory?

Scientists had made observations that did not fit exactly with Dalton's theory. Scientists changed the atomic theory to include this new knowledge. While the modern atomic theory is based on Dalton's theory, it is also very different.


What are the different between a scientists law and scientific theory?

law is based on fact theory is a concept/idea


How is a scientific hypothesis from a scientific theory?

Have you heard the word "theory" used in a different way by non scientists in everyday conversation? How is this use of the word different from a scientific theory?


When were atomic theory and the theory of relativity?

Atomic theory began to develop in the early 19th century with scientists like John Dalton, and continued to evolve through contributions from scientists like Niels Bohr and Ernest Rutherford. The theory of relativity was introduced by Albert Einstein in the early 20th century, with his Special Theory of Relativity published in 1905 and General Theory of Relativity in 1915.

What scientists didn't not major contribution to cell theory?

One scientist who did not make a major contribution to cell theory was Lamarck. While Lamarck made significant contributions to evolution with his theory of inheritance of acquired characteristics, his work did not significantly impact the development of cell theory.


Who are the early scientists who made contributions in the development of the atomic theory?

Early scientists who made significant contributions to the development of the atomic theory include Democritus, who proposed that matter is made up of indivisible particles called atoms, and John Dalton, who introduced the concept that elements are made up of identical atoms that combine to form compounds in fixed ratios.
