Cell Theory vs Modern Cell Theory
Summary
TLDRThis video explores the evolution from the original cell theory to the modern cell theory. It highlights the pivotal role of the microscope in discovering cells, with Robert Hooke naming them in 1665. The cell theory, developed by Matthias Schleiden and Theodore Schwann in 1839, posits that all life is cellular. Rudolph Virchow added that new cells arise from existing ones. Modern cell theory expands on these tenets, acknowledging that all living things are cellular, cells are life's basic unit, new cells come from division, genetic information is passed down, all cells share a chemical composition, and energy flow is a cellular function. The video concludes with a call for kindness.

What is the role of mitosis in the cell theory?
-Mitosis is part of the process by which cells divide to create new cells, ensuring that genetic information is passed on to the new daughter cells.
How does the modern cell theory describe the basic chemical composition of cells?
-The modern cell theory describes cells as having organelles, membranes, cytoplasms, fluids, and other structures that work together to maintain cell life.
What is the significance of energy flow in cells as described in the modern cell theory?
-Energy flow in cells is significant as cells both use energy for their functions and create energy through processes like cellular respiration.
Outlines
đŹ Introduction to Cell Theory
This video explores the evolution from the original cell theory to the modern cell theory, highlighting how technological advancements have led to new scientific discoveries. The invention of the microscope was pivotal, allowing Robert Hooke to name 'cells' after observing cork structures in 1665. It took until 1839 for scientists like Theodore Schwann and Matthias Schleiden to develop the cell theory, which was later expanded by Rudolph Virchow in 1855 with the principle that all cells come from pre-existing cells. The video outlines the three tenets of the cell theory and discusses how modern technology has allowed for an expanded understanding of cells, leading to the six points of modern cell theory.

Highlights
The invention of the microscope led to the discovery of cells and improved our understanding of life.
Robert Hooke is credited with naming cells after observing cork structures under a microscope in 1665.
It took 175 years after Hooke's discovery for the cell theory to be formulated.
Theodor Schwann and Matthias Schleiden are credited with developing the cell theory in 1839.
Schleiden realized that plants are composed of cells, while Schwann recognized that animals are also composed of cells.
Rudolph Virchow added the third tenet to the cell theory in 1855, stating that all cells come from pre-existing cells.
The original cell theory has three tenets: all living organisms are composed of cells, the cell is the basic unit of structure and organization, and cells arise from pre-existing cells.
Modern cell theory has expanded on the original three tenets due to advancements in technology and research.
All living things are made of cells, which can be single-celled or multicellular.
The cell is the basic unit of life, serving as both the building block and the smallest unit of life.
All cells come from pre-existing cells through processes like mitosis.
Genetic information is passed on during cell division, ensuring an exact copy of DNA is transferred to new daughter cells.
All cells have a basic chemical composition, including organelles, membranes, cytoplasm, and fluids that work together to sustain life.
Energy flow occurs within cells, which both use and create energy.
The video concludes with a message promoting kindness as a multiplier of kindness.

welcome to moomoomath in science in this
video let's take a look at the original
cell theory versus modern cell theory
advances in technology will many times
lead to new discoveries and scientific
theories that were once never considered
the invention of the microscope led to
the discovery of cells and helped us get
a much better understanding of how life
works
Robert Hook is credited with naming
sales in 1665 after using a crude
microscope and looking at thin pieces of
cork he saw structures that looked like
cells in a monastery so we named them
cells although he name sales his
understanding of sales was very very
limited it took roughly 175 years before
scientists learned enough about sales to
come up with the cell theory
credit for developing the cell theory is
usually given to two scientists
Theodore Schwann and Matthias schleiden
in 1839 schleiden realized that plants
are composed of cells and during the
same time Schwann realized that animals
are also composed of sales
this was ground breaking stuff
In 1855 Rudolph verchow
added the third tenant to the cell
theory when he proposed that all cells
come from pre-existing cells
again this was a bold statement
so that cell theory has three tenets
one all living organisms are composed of
one or more cells
two
the cell is the basic unit of structure
and organization in organisms
three cells arise from pre-existing
cells
since 1855 microscopes have improved
computers are now used in research and
our knowledge of the cell has expanded
greatly
as a result modern cell theory has
expanded on these three original but
incredibly important tenants let's go
over six points of the modern cell
theory one all living things are made of
cells
organisms can be single-celled or made
of many many cells two the sale is the
basic unit of life
cells are both the building blocks of
life and also the smallest unit of life
three all cells come from pre-existing
cells
cells divide in order to create new
cells part of this process involves
mitosis
four genetic information is passed on
during cell division
when a cell divides a copy of the DNA is
passed on to the new daughter's cell
and it's an exact copy
five all cells have the basic chemical
composition
cells have organelles membranes
cytoplasms fluids and other structures
that all work together to help keep the
cell alive
and six energy flow occurs in the cell
s both use energy
and create energy
thanks for watching and remember
kindness multiplies kindness be kind to
someone today
