The Cell Theory Song
The Cell Theory Song
Mr. Tamez
Lyrics:
CHORUS
All living things are composed of cells
Cells are the basic units of structure and function in living things
New cells are produced from existing cells
VERSE 1
Back then was a guy named Hooke, cut some cork and he had a look
Underneath his microscope tiny rooms that he saw in groups
Empty rooms that looked like shells He's the one that called them cells
Listen up cause we're not done Cell theory had just begun
Add one scientist to know the inventor of the microscope
Anton von Leeuwenhoek saw cells move and he was like "That's dope"
PRE CHORUS
Cell theory, cell theory, cell theory, cell theory, cell theory, go!
VERSE 2
If you thought this was complete take a breath and have a seat
Two scientists to have their say Schleiden and Schwann to save the day
Schleiden said all plants have cells they are alive and we can tell
The next year Mr. Schwann could see all animals have cells that live and breathe
Oh they live and breathe Live and breathe
BRIDGE
In 1855, Rudolph Virchow proposed that all cells
Come from other cells
This was the final discovery
That ended cell theory cell theory
