Robert Hooke (1635-1703)
Robert Hooke studied plant cells, particularly the cells of cork, using a simple microscope. His observations led to the discovery of cells as the basic structural unit of all living organisms.

Robert Hooke (1665), he first studied cork and saw small compartment he called "Cella." He is credited with the Cell Theory.
Cork cells do have cell membranes. The cell membrane is a fundamental structure present in all living cells, including cork cells. The unique properties of cork cells that make them suitable for cork production come from the suberin layer outside the cell membrane.
he studied cork cells
By Hook looking in a microscope. It was a cork cell.While Hook was examining a dried cork he observed small chambers and named them cell. So it was observation of cork that led to the discovery of cell
Yes, cork cells have a cell wall. The cell wall of cork cells is made of suberin, a waxy substance that makes the cell wall impermeable to water and gases, providing the structure with protection and support.
Yes - cork is made from the bark of trees.
Hooke looked at the cell in a piece of cork and came up with the name ' cell ' because the square plant cell he was looking at reminded him of monk's living/praying quarters.
cell membrane
Cork is an open cell material, which means that it has interconnected pores that allow air and liquids to pass through it. This property gives cork its flexibility and compressibility, making it useful for a variety of applications such as in insulation and flooring.
