Which scientists are credited for the events described in the develolment of the cell theory?

The scientists credited with formulating the postulates of the cell theory are Matthias Schleiden, Theodor Schwann and Rudolf Virchow.

Explanation:

Cell Theory contributed to the understanding of how living organisms are made up of cells, as well as the role that cells play in life related functions.

The experiences of Schleiden, Schwann and Virchow laid the foundations of cell biology, whose main conclusions are summarized in the three postulates of Cell theory:

Matthias Schleiden, when observing plant tissue under a microscope, was able to prove that this tissue was made up of cells, and that all plants possessed them. In 1837 he would postulate that the cell is the fundamental unit of life and that all plants were made up of cells.

A similar experience to that of Schleiden, but with animal tissue, was carried out in 1838 by the German physiologist Theodor Schwann, where he could conclude that in animal tissue there were also cells. This gave way to the second postulate that all living organisms are made up of cells.

In 1863, while studying cancer, the anatomist Rudolf Virchow observed how cells were able to reproduce themselves and give rise to new cells. The third postulate of the theory is due to this scientist, who was able to conclude that every living cell originates from another cell.
