The Contributions of Dutrochet to the Cell Theory. Subject: Microscopy--History, Biology--Cell Theory, René-Joachim-Henri Dutrochet, Language: ENGLISH.
The cellular theory was produced in two steps by Schleiden and Schwann (1838–1839) and then by Remak (1855) and Wirchow (1855–1858). This theory claimed that cells were universal and microscopic entities, constituting living beings and that a cell was always produced by the division of another cell. Since that period up to now, the cell has ...
