How Does Hooke Demonstrate The Size Of A Cell

Cells are an essential part of all living things, while atoms and molecules are an essential part of the cell. There are many parts or organelles of a cell that contributes to a cell to function properly. A scientist named Robert Hooke viewed the first cells through a microscope. At first many scientist could only see the cell vaguely. Mistaking what is now named protoplasm for a jelly like substance. Cells are the most basic unit of life(living things) and atoms are the most basic unit of the universe. These cells are made of molecules and the molecules are made of atoms. Atoms make up everything, living and nonliving objects. Molecules are basically bonded together atoms. Groups of cells make up tissues and these tissues make up organs. To demonstrate the size of cells, atoms, and molecules think of this. If an atom were the size of a pea, a molecule would then be the size of a marble, one cell would be the size of a cruise ship and a human would be the size of North America. Creatures made up of one cell are called unicellular. While creatures made of multiple cells are called multicellular. An example of an single-celled organism

The nucleus is the control center or “brain” of the cell. DNA contains information that’s passed on to the offspring, example- hair color. Ribosomes produce protein for the cell, and lysosomes are where the digestion occurs. Mitochondria produces energy for a cell to use by breaking down substances, the vacuole is a storage area for substances including fats. Cytoplasm is a jelly-like fluid in cells where the organelles of a cell are located. Endoplasmic reticulum are smooth and rough tubes that move and store materials made by the cell. Golgi stores and transports newly made proteins until they can be released through the cell membrane. The cell membrane allows some material to pass into and out of a cell at thousands of places across its
