Thus the Sea-route to India was finally discovered by Vasco-dagama in 1498 that made every European happy. A new chapter in the history of India began. European traders started coming to India for trade. Competition for supremacy for trade among the European community’s started to grow on the soil of India.

Robert Hooke, a British scientist, first used the word “cells” in 1665. He asserts that cells are the fundamental structural and functional components of life. The first person to study and examine living things under a microscope while looking at a cork slice was Robert Hooke.

Excavations of Indus cities have produced much evidence of artistic activity. Such finds are important because they provide insights into the minds, lives, and religious beliefs of their creators. Stone sculpture is extremely rare, and much of it is quite crude. The total repertoire cannot compare to the work done in Mesopotamia during the same periods. The figures are apparently all intended.

Robert Remak (26 July 1815 – 29 August 1865) was a Polish embryologist, physiologist, and neurologist, born in Posen, Prussia, who discovered that the origin of cells was by the division of pre-existing cells. as well as several other key discoveries.

For a long time, biologists thought our DNA resided only in the control center of our cells, the nucleus. Then, in 1963, a couple at Stockholm University discovered DNA outside the nucleus.

Lysosomal storage diseases (LSDs) comprise a group of related conditions characterized by inappropriate lipid storage in lysosomes, due to specific enzyme deficiencies. Gaucher disease was the first of these disorders to be described, in 1882, followed by Fabry disease in 1898. The latter is now known to be due to deficiency of the enzyme α-galactosidase A. This leads to lysosomal storage of.

Biologist who discovered ribosome clusters and 'left-handed' DNA. I first came across Alexander Rich in 1963. He was on the cover of that year's 13 May issue of Newsweek with his PhD student.

Robert Hooke (July 18, 1635–March 3, 1703) was a 17th-century "natural philosopher"—an early scientist—noted for a variety of observations of the natural world. But perhaps his most notable discovery came in 1665 when he looked at a sliver of cork through a microscope lens and discovered cells. Fast Facts: Robert Hooke

Answers (2) Cells were discovered in 1665 by Robert Hooke. He was examining a thin slice of cork using a primitive microscope designed by himself.

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a large organelle made of membranous sheets and tubules that begin near the nucleus and extend across the cell. The endoplasmic reticulum creates, packages, and secretes many of the products created by a cell. Ribosomes, which create proteins, line a portion of the endoplasmic reticulum.
