Robert Hooke magnified a piece of thinly sliced cork and  named the tiny compartments he observed “ cellae ”
1820s: Robert Brown was first to identify a cell nucleus
Matthias Schleiden, hypothesized that a plant cell is an independent  living unit even when it is part of a plant
Schleiden and Theodor Schwann concluded that the tissues of animals as well as plants are composed of cells
[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
2. A cell is the smallest unit of life, individually alive even as part of a multicelled organism
3. All living cells come from division of preexisting cells
4. Cells contain hereditary material, which they pass to their offspring during division

1 millimeter (mm) = 1/1000 meter, or 0.04 inch
1 micrometer ( μ m) = 1/1,000,000 meter, or 0.00004 inch
1 nanometer (nm) = 1/1,000,000,000 meter, or 0.00000004 inch

Membranes of most cells can be described as a  fluid mosaic   of lipids (mainly phospholipids) and proteins
Lipids are organized as a  lipid bilayer : a double layer of lipids in which the nonpolar tails of both layers are sandwiched between the polar heads

  8. Figure 4.5 Examples of microscopes. A) A compound light microscope. B) A transmission electron microscope (TEM).
  9. Figure 4.6 Different microscopes reveal different characteristics of the same organism, a green alga ( Scenedesmus ).
  10. Figure 4.7 Relative sizes. Below , the diameter of most cells is in the range of 1 to 100 micrometers. Right , converting among units of length; also see Units of Measure, Appendix IX.
  11. Figure 4.9 At its most basic, a cell is a lipid bilayer bubble filled with fluid.
  12. Figure 4.8 Cell membrane structure. A Organization of phospholipids in cell membranes. B–E Examples of common membrane proteins.

  15. Figure 4.10 A sampling of bacteria ( this page ) and archaeans
  16. Figure 4.11 Generalized body plan of a bacterium or archaean.
  17. Figure 4.12 A biofilm. A single species of bacteria, Bacillus subtilis , formed this biofilm. Note the distinct “neighborhoods.”
  18. Figure 4.13 Transmission electron micrographs of eukaryotic cells. A Human white blood cell. B Photosynthetic cell from a blade of timothy grass.
  19. Figure 4.14 The cell nucleus. TEM at right , nucleus of a mouse pancreas cell.
