Cell Theory Timeline Famous Scientists Scientist Year Discovery Han & Zacharias Janssen 1595 | They made the first microscope by placing 2 lenses in atube. Robert Hooke 1665 He studied many objects in his primitive compound microscope and published a book of it. | Anton van Leeuwenhoek 1680 He described cells in a drop of pond water usinga simple microscope with only one extremely good lens to lookon the blood, insects, and many more. He was describing about the cells and bacteria. He made his own fine quality lens for use in monocular microscope. Matthias Schleiden | Theodor Schwann 1838 1839 He was stating that the cell isthe basic building block of ll plants matter because the tissues are composed of cells. An embryonic plant arose from a single cel. He was stating that the animal and plant cells have different structures. The tissues are made of cells. 1665 -- Robert Heoke English physicist Robert Hooke looked at a sliver of cork through d microscope lens and neticed some “pores or "ces" in it.
