Cell was first discovered by Robert Hooke in 1665 in a simple microscope.Cells are of two types: eukaryotic, which contain a nucleus, and prokaryotic, which do not. Prokaryotes are single-celled organisms, while eukaryotes can be either single-celled or multicellular.There are over 200 different cell types in the human body.
