16651665: Robert : Robert HookeHooke used an early used an early compound microscope to observe a compound microscope to observe a thin piece of thin piece of corkcork (plant material). He (plant material). He observed empty chambers, which he called observed empty chambers, which he called ““cellscells.”.”
16771677: Anton van : Anton van LeeuwenhoekLeeuwenhoek used a used a single lens microscope to observe pond single lens microscope to observe pond water. He saw tons of water. He saw tons of microorganismsmicroorganisms (bacteria, protists), even in the water he (bacteria, protists), even in the water he drank!drank!
