Chapter 3, Problem 2WIO
Summary Introduction
To determine:
The common features of all cells and three structures which are found only in a eukaryotic cell and not in a prokaryotic cell.
Introduction:
Robert Hooke was an English physicist who coined the term cell. He examined cork using a self-designed lens. The inner structure of cork appeared to be like cubicles due to which he named them cells. A detailed study of cells continued with the advancement of instruments.
