He took a piece of cork from a chopped down apple tree near his house. He saw dead cells in his microscope because the tree was chopped and the cells were dried considered dead.

The plant’s cork cell which was observed by Robert Hooke was of Algae Spirogyra.  

Explanation:

All the organisms are made up of cell. It is the 'fundamental unit' of life. It was first described by 'Robert Hooke' in 1655. He observed dead cell walls under a microscope.

He was the first person to witness a cell. But his observations were not clear. He was unable to see the 'nucleus' and 'other organelles'. He was unable to differentiate between cells as the cell was not clear.
