Robert Hooke, an English scientist discovered cells in 1665. He took a thin slice of cork (dead bark of a tree) and examined it under a self-made microscope. He observed that the cork had tiny and empty compartments which had a honey- comb like structure. In his book Micrographia, he called these compartments 'cells' because they resembled the small rooms (cellula in Latin) which monks inhabited. Soon after this, in around 1677, Antonie Van Leuwenhoek made further discoveries by inventing his own more powerful microscope and becoming the first person to observe human cells and bacteria under his microscope. There are millions of living organisms all of them have different types of cell the variation in size, shape and number of living cells lead to the vast variety in nature.
