Title: All about cell
Description: “A cell is defined as the smallest, basic unit of life that is responsible for all of life's processes.” Cells are the structural, functional, and biological units of all living beings. A cell can replicate itself independently. Hence, they are known as the building blocks of life.So learn about cell is the foundation

centuries
...
In his book "Micrographia," published in 1665, Hooke described and
illustrated cork cells, which he observed under a microscope
...
Antonie van Leeuwenhoek (Late 17th Century): The Dutch scientist Antonie van Leeuwenhoek
