The cells were first observed using a compound microscope. This microscope was used by Robert Hooke in the year 1665 who observed thin slices of cork under the compound microscope and saw structures which resembled small rooms and thus he named them as cells.In reality what he actually observed were the dead plant cells.

Answer from: kayli53531

The cells were first observed through compound microscope.

Further Explanation:

Robert Hooke used compound microscope to observe the cork cell which leads to the discovery of the cell in 1665. The microscope was designed by him to observe a piece of cork where he saw tiny units stacked together and he named those units as “cell”. He didn’t see any organelles inside the cell as he observed the dead plant cell with cell walls which resembled like small room. The compound microscope is used to view magnified images of the sample present in the glass slide and the magnification power used by Robert Hooke is 50X. The experiments and observations made using various lenses were recorded in his book called Micrographia or some Physiological Descriptions of Minute Bodies made by Magnifying Glasses with Observations and Inquiries Thereupon.

The cell is the structural and functional unit of an organism where plants and animal cells contain different cellular organelles with specific function.

Red blood cells are responsible for transporting oxygen in the blood. people with sickle cell anemia were born with a defective gene that results in sickle-shaped red blood cells. individuals with the disease often suffer pain in their extremities due to the build-up of these cells causing blockages in the blood vessels. the shape of the blood cells also reduces the amount of oxygen transported in the blood.
