About this subject
Cells are the basic units of life, and observing them under a microscope is a fascinating experience. The image shows cells in different stages of division, with internal structures such as nucleus, mitochondria, and ribosomes. Optical and electron microscopy have enabled major advances in understanding cell biology. Historically, Antonie van Leeuwenhoek is considered the father of microscopy, having discovered microorganisms and cells in 1676.
