Why have improvements in microscopes over time resulted in revisions in the cell theory?

Asked by James592

Answer (3)

Improvements in microscopes over time have allowed for more and more precise analysis of cells which has contributed to new developments in cell theories. With newer more precise microscopes scientists are able to assess cells and discover new parts or aspects of cells that had previously been unknown because of weaker telescopes.
