Answer: Cell theory was formulated by two scientists: Theodor Schwann and Matthias Jakob Schleiden.
In 1839, Schleiden suggested that every structural part of a plant was made up of cells or the result of cells.
In 1839, Theodor Schwann states that along with plants, animals are composed of cells or the product of cells in their structures.
From these conclusions about plants and animals, two of the three tenets of cell theory were postulated. They are as follows:
1. All living organisms are composed of one or more cells
2. The cell is the most basic unit of life
3. All cells arise only from pre-existing cells.
These three statements are the collectively known as cell theory.
