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

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

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

  5. Figure 4.3 Overview of the general organization of bacteria and eukaryotic cells. Archaeans are similar to bacteria in overall structure. The three examples are not drawn to the same scale.
  6. Figure 4.4 Three examples of the surface-to-volume ratio. This physical relationship between increases in volume and surface area constrains cell size and shape.
  7. Figure 4.5 Examples of microscopes. A) A compound light microscope. B) A transmission electron microscope (TEM).
  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.
  13. Figure 4.8 Cell membrane structure. A Organization of phospholipids in cell membranes. B–E Examples of common membrane proteins.
  14. Figure 4.10 A sampling of bacteria ( this page ) and archaeans
  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.
  20. Figure 4.15 Nuclear pores. Each is an organized cluster of membrane proteins that selectively allows substances to cross the nuclear membrane.
