Briefly describe the contribution each of the following people made to the development of genetics or genetic analysis. Robert Hooke:

Accepted Answer

Hello, everyone. Let's look at our next question says, who was the scientist that discovered the structure of the cell through the use of a microscope? So let's look at our answer choices here and the person we want here is choice D Robert Hooke. He observed a section of cork under a microscope and saw the little box like structures that made it up and called it a cell because the structures reminded him of monastic cells. But he didn't really understand the function of cells. Just observed that this um bark was made up of these small little units that he saw while absorbing it under the microscope. Let's look under our other, look at our other answer choices to understand why they're not correct. Got choice. A Sigmund Freud. Sigmund Freud was the founder of psychoanalysis and he was sort of one of the first people to see mental illness as an illness that could be treated, searching to understand and find cures for that. So, but not the person that discovered the cell. So we're going to cross that out. Choice B Marie Curie known for her discoveries of polonium and radium and for that understanding of radiation which then lead to treatments for cancer and many other things including X ray images, but not what we're looking for. So let's cross that out. And then finally, Rosalind Franklin and Rosalind Franklin was the X ray crystallography for whose images of the structure of D N A allowed Watson and crick to form that model of D N A with its double helical structure but not what we're looking for. So cross out choice, see. So again, the scientists that discovered the structure of the cell for the use of a microscope was choice D Robert Hooke. See you in the next video.
