4. Plant cell
⢠While observing cork through his microscope, Hooke saw tiny
boxlike cavities, which he illustrated and described as cells. He had
discovered plant cells! Hooke's discovery led to the
understanding of cells as the smallest units of lifeâthe foundation
of cell theory.
5. Animal cells
⢠In the nineteenth century, biologists began taking a closer look at
both animal and plant tissues, perfecting cell theory. Scientists
could readily tell that plants were completely made up of cells due
to their cell wall. However, this was not so obvious for animal cells,
which lack a cell wall. Many scientists believed that animals were
made of âglobules.â
