Correct Answer: Robert Hooke


Solution : The correct answer is Robert Hooke .

Robert Hooke, in 1665, made the groundbreaking discovery of cells, naming them after small rooms (cellula) due to their appearance. His observations, detailed in "Micrographia," lacked insights into the nucleus and other organelles in living cells. Hooke's work laid the foundation for cell biology.
