  • Cell Theory - Cells, Robert Hooke and Anton Van Leeuwenhoek2:28

    Cell Theory: The Organisation of Life

    So, it's important that you know first of all that "All organisms are composed of cells".

    But, what is a cell?

    Cells can be described as "the basic units life".

    Cells were 'discovered' by Robert Hooke in England in 1665. Hooke was using one of the first microscopes.

  • Light Microscopes and the IAM Triangle7:05

    Of all the techniques used in biology microscopy is probably the most important. The vast majority of living organisms are too small to be seen in any detail with the human eye. Cells and their organelles can only be seen with the aid of a microscope.
