The Cell-Theory: a Restatement, History, and Critique Part III
*57 The Cell-theory: A Restatement, History, and Critique Part III. The Cell as a Morphological Unit By JOHN R. BAKER (From the Department of Zoology and Comparative Anatomy, Oxford) SUMMARY A long time elapsed after the discovery of cells before they came to be generally regarded as morphological units. As a first step it was necessary to show that the cell-walls of plants were double and that cells could therefore be separated. The earliest advances in this direction were made by Treviranus (1805) and Link (1807). The idea of a cell was very imperfect, however, so long as attention was con- centrated on its wall. The first person who stated clearly that the cell-wall is not a necessary constituent was Leydig (1857). Subsequently the cell came to be regarded as a naked mass of protoplasm with a nucleus, and to this unit the name of protoplast was given. The true nature of the limiting membrane of the protoplast was discovered by Overton (1895). The plasmodesmata or connective strands that sometimes connect cells were prob- ably first seen by Hartig, in sieve-plates (1837). They are best regarded from the point of view of their functions in particular cases. They do not provide evidence for the view that the whole of a multicellular organism is basically a protoplasmic unit. Two or more nuclei in a continuous mass of protoplasm appear to have been seen for the first time in 1802, by Bauer. That an organism may consist wholly of a syn- cytium was discovered in i860, in the Mycetozoa.

History of the Cell Theory All Living Organisms Are Composed of Cells, and All Cells Arise from Other Cells
History of the Cell Theory All living organisms are composed of cells, and all cells arise from other cells. These simple and powerful statements form the basis of the cell theory, first formulated by a group of European biologists in the mid-1800s. So fundamental are these ideas to biology that it is easy to forget they were not always thought to be true. Early Observations The invention of the microscope allowed the first view of cells. English physicist and microscopist Robert Hooke (1635–1702) first described cells in 1665. He made thin slices of cork and likened the boxy partitions he observed to the cells (small rooms) in a monastery. The open spaces Hooke observed were empty, but he and others suggested these spaces might be used for fluid transport in living plants. He did not propose, and gave no indication that he believed, that these structures represented the basic unit of Robert Hooke's microscope. Hooke living organisms. first described cells in 1665. Marcello Malpighi (1628–1694), and Hooke's colleague, Nehemiah Grew (1641–1712), made detailed studies of plant cells and established the presence of cellular structures throughout the plant body. Grew likened the cellular spaces to the gas bubbles in rising bread and suggested they may have formed through a similar process. The presence of cells in animal tissue was demonstrated later than in plants because the thin sections needed for viewing under the microscope are more difficult to prepare for animal tissues. The prevalent view of Hooke's contemporaries was that animals were composed of several types of fibers, the various properties of which accounted for the differences among tissues.

Biological Atomism and Cell Theory

The activ- Biological atomism ity of a living organism is thus conceived as the result of the activities and interactions of its elementary Cell theory constituents, each of which individually already exhibits all the attributes proper to life. This paper sur- Organismal theory veys some of the key episodes in the history of biological atomism, and situates cell theory within this Reductionism tradition. The atomistic foundations of cell theory are subsequently dissected and discussed, together with the theory’s conceptual development and eventual consolidation. This paper then examines the major criticisms that have been waged against cell theory, and argues that these too can be interpreted through the prism of biological atomism as attempts to relocate the true biological atom away from the cell to a level of organization above or below it. Overall, biological atomism provides a useful perspective through which to examine the history and philosophy of cell theory, and it also opens up a new way of thinking about the epistemic decomposition of living organisms that signiﬁcantly departs from the phys- icochemical reductionism of mechanistic biology.

Cell Theory the CELL THEORY GREW out of the WORK of MANY SCIENTISTS and IMPROVEMENTS in the MICROSCOPE
Cell Theory THE CELL THEORY GREW OUT OF THE WORK OF MANY SCIENTISTS AND IMPROVEMENTS IN THE MICROSCOPE. Many scientists contributed to the cell theory. ROBERT HOOKE He was the first person to look at cells and named them. He looked at cork cells which are not living. It is the bark of a tree so they are dead plant cells. They are small squares and they reminded him of the small rooms in a monastery called cells ANTON VAN LEEUWENHOEK Credited with improving the microscope. (Zacharias Janssen is credited with discovering/creating microscope). Leeuwenhoek’s microscope could magnify 200x the human eye! Today’s microscopes can magnify up to 1500! MATTHIAS SCHLEIDEN was a German botanist (scientist who studies plants.) He found that the plant parts he examined were made of cells. He made the generalization that all plants were made of cells. THEODOR SCHWANN Studied animals. His microscopic investigations of animal parts led him to generalize that all animals are made of cells After looking at Schleiden’s work ,he further proposed that all organisms are made of cells. RUDOLF VIRCHOW- OMNIS CELLULA C CELLULA”: ALL CELLS FROM CELLS (1855) German doctor that said that new plant cells arise only from existing plant cells, and new animal cells arise only from existing animal cells. Building off the work of Redi (1668) who disproved the idea of spontaneous generation in his experiments about rotting meat. LOUIS PASTEUR-GERM THEORY 1856-Used the microscope to discover that tiny, one- celled (eukaryotic) yeast created alcoholic fermentation and that other one-celled, rod-shaped organisms (prokaryotic bacteria) caused beverages to spoil.

Today we know that cells are the smallest unit of living matter that can carry out all processes required for life. But before the 1600s, people had many other ideas about the basis of life.
