Notes: history of microbiology, the study of microbiology began with the invention of the ________________, robert hooke, first to examine cells by microscopy. 4. 1 antoni van leeuwenhoek: built a variety of improved microscopes (70x to 300x, first to observe bacteria (1676, first to observe motile microscopic organisms (he called them animalcules) concluded that they were alive. Notes: single-celled organisms, a cell is , the simplest collection of matter that can live, the fundamental unit of structure and function of all organisms. All cells : have genetic info in dna, are bound by a membrane, have a distinct internal environment (cytoplasm, use ribosomes to make proteins, are relatively small. Also, they have found genetic info from other cells in different cells (probably hgt): information is stored in the genetic material and expressed, energy and nutrients are transformed though metabolism (central dogma: replicationdna transcription-> rnatranslation -> protein) 2. 1 prokaryotes vs. eukaryotes: there are 2 distinct types of cells:
