- Theodor Schwann
- Mattias Schleiden
- Rudolf Virchow
An exception to cell theory
- Virus
Explaination of cell theory:
- Cell theory states that the cell is the basic building block of any and every organism and is also responsible for all the functions.
- The theory also states that every organism may contain one cell (unicellular) or many cell (multicellular).
- Each cell arises from preexisting cell by cell division and proliferation

- Schwann was a British zoologist he reported the plasma membrane and different types of animal cells also.
