    Cells founded in everything

    Cells founded in everything
    Around 1560 when the Microscope was first made, Cells were discovered the talk of the town. They Found them in Everything!
    This is very important because Cell discovery was the start of the founding's of many other microscopic substances.
  • Microscope beginnings

    Microscope beginnings
    In 1590 Microscopes where still new and young, they were highly sought after by many scientists. This is important because they made us see how a whole new microscopic world had to be discovered.
  • Period: to

    Hooke described 'cells' in cork.

    Hooke made the name of cells back in 1655 and eventually the name became world known. Its important because this is the name that people go by when regarding to Cells
  • Cells fundamental facts discovered

    Cells fundamental facts discovered
    Things like when Hooke discovered that there are Cells in the human body, also when he discovered that there also in plants and animals. This was important because we discovered how widespread cells are and another connection between all living things.
  • Book of cells created

    Book of cells created
    In 1655 the book of cells was written by Robert Hooke. He described the cell in great detail for the very first time> This is important because science has moved forward from his work and we still refer to his findings today.
  • Book on Histology and other important scientific breakthroughs

    Book on Histology and other important scientific breakthroughs
    In the early to mid 1800s the book was made, it revealed many major facts about cells, the human body, and other topics. This was important because it was the first adequate textbook by historian standards and is a historical book mark of what we learned about the world.
  • Neurology Breakthrough

    Neurology Breakthrough
    We discovered through dissection and vivisection that the ventral roots in spine transmit motor impulses and the posterior roots receive sensory input. This is important because we learned more about how the body works.
  • Theology of evolution

    Theology of evolution
    This was starting to get taught to kids in schools, it was very much accepted. It was important because it made us think of cell mutation on a deeper level.
  • Nerve Cell and prolongations

    Nerve Cell and prolongations
    These discovers had us going deeper into the nerve and cellular level of the human body and other animals. This is important because we learned more about the brain and the body reacting.
  • Nervous system idea, and Independent cells

    Nervous system idea, and Independent cells
    The Nervous system was a big find because it tied together all of our Independent cell findings and other neurological findings too. Its important because it made us have a full picture of the nervous system and how it worked.
