The right option is; Hooke

Robert Hooke was an English scientist that first recognized the cell as the universal unit of life. In 1665, Robert Hooke observed honeycomb-like structure when he viewed very tiny slices of cork using a coarse compound microscope. He called the structures cells but he did not know their actual structure and function.
