Answer:
The cell is the basic structural and functional unit of life. All living organisms are made up of cells. Cells make tissues, tissues make organs, organs make organ systems and organ systems make a living organism. Thus, the cell is the building block, or the structural unit of the living body.
Cells were discovered for the first time by Robert Hooke in 1665. He observed a piece of cork under his microscope. He saw that the cork was made up of many small boxes. He called these little boxes cells. These box-like structures were actually dead cells.
Living cells were observed by Anton Von Leeuwenhoek for the first time using improved microscopes
