The first cells from an organism (cork) were observed by Hooke in the 1600s. Soon after, microscopist van Leeuwenhoek observed many other living cells. In the early 1800s, Schwann and Schleiden theorized that cells are the basic building blocks of all living things.

Explanation:
ROBERT HOOK DISCOVERED CELLS IN 1665
Robert Hooke discovered cells in cork, then in living plant tissue using an early compound microscope. He coined the term cell (from Latin cella, meaning "small room") in his book Micrographia (1665).
He remarked that it looked strangely similar to cellula or small rooms which monks inhabited, thus deriving the name. However what Hooke actually saw was the dead cell walls of plant cells (cork) as it appeared under the microscope
