The Cell
THE BASIC UNIT OF LIFE
Engage: Cell History
 Cytology- study of cells
 1665 English Scientist
Robert Hooke
 Used a microscope to
examine cork (plant)
 Hooke called what he saw
"Cells"
Cell History
 Robert Brown
 discovered the nucleus in
1833.
 Matthias Schleiden
 German Botanist
Matthias Schleiden
 1838
 ALL PLANTS "ARE
COMPOSED OF
CELLS".
 Theodor Schwann
 Also in 1838,
 discovered that animals
were made of cells
Cell History
 Rudolf Virchow
 1855, German Physician
 "CELLS ONLY COME FROM OTHER
CELLS".
 His statement debunked
"Theory of Spontaneous Generation"
Cell Theory
 The COMBINED
work of Schleiden,
Schwann, and
Virchow make up
the modern
CELL
THEORY.
1. All living things are composed of a cell
or cells.
2. Cells are the basic unit of life.
3. All cells come from preexisting cells.
The Cell Theory states that:
Explore
 Plant vs. Animal Lab
 You will observe different types of plant and animal cells
under the microscope and record your observations.
 Gel Cells for Diffusion
 You will build a model of a cell to understand why cells
when they reach a certain size stop growing.
Explain: Cell Diversity
 Cells within the same organism show
Enormous Diversity in:
 Size
 Shape
 Internal Organization
