Anton von Leeuwenhoek
in Holland
Robert Hooke in
England
Cells were unknown until the invention of microscopes in the
1650’s
two scientists working independently built the first microscopes

Anton Van Leeuwenhoek
1600’s
Made lenses that could magnify more.
Observed many living organisms
Looking at Protists called them “Wee Beasties”

Anton Van Leeuwenhoek
Leeuwenhoek’s drawings of “animalcules” set off a flurry of amateur and sometimes ridiculous claims, such as:
- pondwater animalcules causing madness!

Anton Van Leeuwenhoek
and...
Human sperm cells contain tiny human beings!
Today we can look back and think “crazy,” but at the time people took these ideas very seriously.

Robert Hooke
in 1665 - First to coin term – “Cell”
Looked at Cork
Looked really at a dead plant cell
Only saw the cell wall
![Page 7: Cells and The Cell Theory. Anton von Leeuwenhoek in Holland Robert Hooke in England Cells were unknown until the invention of microscopes in the 1650’s.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d1a5503460f949efa90/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Late 1800’s – Charles Spencer developed the modern day compound light microscope
Can magnify an object up to 1000 times!
Scientists start looking at everything under the microscope and they notice…
Every living thing seems to be made up of small units called cells!
![Page 8: Cells and The Cell Theory. Anton von Leeuwenhoek in Holland Robert Hooke in England Cells were unknown until the invention of microscopes in the 1650’s.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d1a5503460f949efa90/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
1838 Matthias Schleiden – concludes all plants made up of cells
Birth of the cell theory…
1839 – Theodore Schwann concludes all animals are composed of cells
![Page 9: Cells and The Cell Theory. Anton von Leeuwenhoek in Holland Robert Hooke in England Cells were unknown until the invention of microscopes in the 1650’s.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d1a5503460f949efa90/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Birth of the cell theory…Schleiden & Schwann, in 1839, formally espoused cell theory –
Cells are of universal occurrence in living things
and
Cells are the basic units of an organism
![Page 10: Cells and The Cell Theory. Anton von Leeuwenhoek in Holland Robert Hooke in England Cells were unknown until the invention of microscopes in the 1650’s.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d1a5503460f949efa90/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Birth of the cell theory…In 1858, Rudolph Virchow forcefully states the paradigm of cell theory
``All cells come from previous cells’’Omnis cellula e cellula
Thus: all individuals derived from a single celled organism are related
and all cells in a multi-celled organism are descended from one fertilized egg.
![Page 11: Cells and The Cell Theory. Anton von Leeuwenhoek in Holland Robert Hooke in England Cells were unknown until the invention of microscopes in the 1650’s.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d1a5503460f949efa90/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
The Cell TheoryThe cell theory has three parts:
All living things contain at least one cell
Cells are the smallest living units of matter
Cells can only come from pre-existing cells
![Page 12: Cells and The Cell Theory. Anton von Leeuwenhoek in Holland Robert Hooke in England Cells were unknown until the invention of microscopes in the 1650’s.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d1a5503460f949efa90/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
The Cell TheoryAll living things contain at least one cell
Many scientists working after Hooke and Leeuwenhoek observed different plants and animals
Each of them noted that no matter what they observed, if it was alive it had cells.
![Page 13: Cells and The Cell Theory. Anton von Leeuwenhoek in Holland Robert Hooke in England Cells were unknown until the invention of microscopes in the 1650’s.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d1a5503460f949efa90/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
The Cell TheoryCells are the smallest living units of matter
Scientists quickly realized that when cells were dissected or broken open they died
This meant that whatever “life” is, it is something that happens inside cells
![Page 14: Cells and The Cell Theory. Anton von Leeuwenhoek in Holland Robert Hooke in England Cells were unknown until the invention of microscopes in the 1650’s.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d1a5503460f949efa90/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
The Cell TheoryCells can only come from pre-existing
cellsdoes not answer the question of where the first cell came from or how it came to be.
has not been disproved yet - no scientist has ever built a living cell from nonliving organic molecules
![Page 15: Cells and The Cell Theory. Anton von Leeuwenhoek in Holland Robert Hooke in England Cells were unknown until the invention of microscopes in the 1650’s.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d1a5503460f949efa90/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Spontaneous GenerationFrom pre-historic times to about 1850, most people believed that under the right conditions, living things could spontaneously appear from non-living material.
![Page 16: Cells and The Cell Theory. Anton von Leeuwenhoek in Holland Robert Hooke in England Cells were unknown until the invention of microscopes in the 1650’s.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d1a5503460f949efa90/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
People throughout the Middle Ages
believed that mice could be “created” spontaneously by putting grain in
dark, quiet place and leaving it for a
few weeks.
![Page 17: Cells and The Cell Theory. Anton von Leeuwenhoek in Holland Robert Hooke in England Cells were unknown until the invention of microscopes in the 1650’s.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d1a5503460f949efa90/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
The discovery of cells only confused people more- If cells are alive, then where do they come from?
Can these almost invisible things appear spontaneously from the air?
![Page 18: Cells and The Cell Theory. Anton von Leeuwenhoek in Holland Robert Hooke in England Cells were unknown until the invention of microscopes in the 1650’s.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d1a5503460f949efa90/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Francesco Redi
Born 1626 in Italy
First to challenge the idea of spontaneous generation or biogenesisDid not accept the common belief that flies magically appeared from rotting meat
![Page 19: Cells and The Cell Theory. Anton von Leeuwenhoek in Holland Robert Hooke in England Cells were unknown until the invention of microscopes in the 1650’s.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d1a5503460f949efa90/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Redi’s Experiment
Independent variable = cover
Dependent variable = presence of flies
Hypothesis: If a jar containing rotting meat is covered, then it will produce no flies
![Page 20: Cells and The Cell Theory. Anton von Leeuwenhoek in Holland Robert Hooke in England Cells were unknown until the invention of microscopes in the 1650’s.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d1a5503460f949efa90/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Fly eggs
Redi’s Conclusions
Flies lay eggs, which grow into maggots, which metamorphose into flies
If flies can’t lay eggs, then no new flies can grow
![Page 21: Cells and The Cell Theory. Anton von Leeuwenhoek in Holland Robert Hooke in England Cells were unknown until the invention of microscopes in the 1650’s.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d1a5503460f949efa90/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Objections to Redi
Many people rejected Redi’s claim that flies do not spontaneously generate
Their reasoning:“sealing the jar closed prevented a magical essence from entering the rotting meat and bringing it to life”
“Scientists seek only to challenge belief systems and stir things up”
![Page 22: Cells and The Cell Theory. Anton von Leeuwenhoek in Holland Robert Hooke in England Cells were unknown until the invention of microscopes in the 1650’s.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d1a5503460f949efa90/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Lazzaro Spallanzani1729. Italian
Believed microbes that spoil food come from the air and can be killed by boiling
Independent variable = air
Dependent variable = food spoilageHypothesis: If air is allowed to reach food, then microbes will get in and cause it to spoil
![Page 23: Cells and The Cell Theory. Anton von Leeuwenhoek in Holland Robert Hooke in England Cells were unknown until the invention of microscopes in the 1650’s.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d1a5503460f949efa90/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Spallanzani’s ExperimentFlask 1: boiled broth, open
Flask 2: boiled broth, sealed shut
Results
Flask 1 spoiled
Flask 2 did not spoil
![Page 24: Cells and The Cell Theory. Anton von Leeuwenhoek in Holland Robert Hooke in England Cells were unknown until the invention of microscopes in the 1650’s.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d1a5503460f949efa90/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Objections to Spallanzani
Sealing the flask shut blocked the entrance of a magical life force in the air from getting to the broth.
Since few people had seen these microbes, few people believed him.
![Page 25: Cells and The Cell Theory. Anton von Leeuwenhoek in Holland Robert Hooke in England Cells were unknown until the invention of microscopes in the 1650’s.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d1a5503460f949efa90/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Louis Pasteur1859. France
Supported that spontaneous generation is a myth
Invented pasteurization (sterilization by heat)
![Page 26: Cells and The Cell Theory. Anton von Leeuwenhoek in Holland Robert Hooke in England Cells were unknown until the invention of microscopes in the 1650’s.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d1a5503460f949efa90/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Pasteur’s Experiment
An improvement on Spallanzani’s work
Used special “swan-neck flasks” that allowed air in but kept bacteria out
Independent variable = bacteria
Dependent variable = spoiling broth
Hypothesis; If boiled broth is kept free of bacteria, then it will not spoil even if air can reach it.
![Page 27: Cells and The Cell Theory. Anton von Leeuwenhoek in Holland Robert Hooke in England Cells were unknown until the invention of microscopes in the 1650’s.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d1a5503460f949efa90/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
The curved neck allows air in but traps bacteria-carrying dust and dirt
particles
![Page 28: Cells and The Cell Theory. Anton von Leeuwenhoek in Holland Robert Hooke in England Cells were unknown until the invention of microscopes in the 1650’s.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d1a5503460f949efa90/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Spontaneous generation is dead!
Redi didn’t believe in it, and did an experiment using flies
Spallanzani didn’t believe in it, and experimented with broth
Pasteur disproved it conclusively with his open-air yet spoilage free flasks.
![Page 29: Cells and The Cell Theory. Anton von Leeuwenhoek in Holland Robert Hooke in England Cells were unknown until the invention of microscopes in the 1650’s.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d1a5503460f949efa90/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Life from dead stuff= 0Biogenesis = 3
Experimental method wins out over superstition
the cell theory takes hold among ordinary people
![Page 30: Cells and The Cell Theory. Anton von Leeuwenhoek in Holland Robert Hooke in England Cells were unknown until the invention of microscopes in the 1650’s.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d1a5503460f949efa90/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Pasteur is the father of modern microbiologysupported the last part of the cell theory: cells only come from pre-existing cells
identified yeasts as the microbes that change grape juice into wine
showed that heat can be used to sterilize foods and preserve them in sealed glass containers, and later cans.
![Page 31: Cells and The Cell Theory. Anton von Leeuwenhoek in Holland Robert Hooke in England Cells were unknown until the invention of microscopes in the 1650’s.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d1a5503460f949efa90/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Finally...in the late 1870’s, doctors start to wash their hands and instruments before operating...some even start wearing gloves!
Joseph Lister’s wacky idea that antiseptics kill germs catches on...
![Page 32: Cells and The Cell Theory. Anton von Leeuwenhoek in Holland Robert Hooke in England Cells were unknown until the invention of microscopes in the 1650’s.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d1a5503460f949efa90/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
The cell theory is one of the most important theories in biology.
All living things contain at least one cell
Cells are the smallest living units of matter
Cells can only come from pre-existing cells
