(also on next slide) 1 – Watch the clip The Wacky History of Cell Theory – Answer the questions on your worksheet. (also on next slide)The Wacky History of Cell TheoryThe Wacky History of Cell Theory Schleiden, Schwann, and Virchow Vow -- Cell Is the Basic Building Block of Life Scientists Schleiden, Schwann, and Virchow have studied living organisms for several years. With the help of the microscope they have determined that all living things are made of cells. According to Matthias Schleiden and Theodor Schwann, these cells seem to be the basic structural units within organisms. The two scientists also note that the well-being of the organism depends on the well-being of its cells. Due to the numerous and varied experiments and studies they have conducted, Schleiden and Schwann are confident in their hypothesis and have laid out the points in what they call the cell theory. Schleiden and Schwann have incorporated into the cell theory experimental observations and conclusions of the famous scientist Rudolf Virchow, who has observed that cells reproduce themselves.
