  • Lavoisier's contributions

    Defined an element; named Hydrogen and Oxygen.

  • Rutherford's Gold Foil experiment

    Discovered the atomic nucleus by observing alpha particles deflecting off gold foil.

  • Mendeleev's achievement

    Developed the Periodic Table of the Elements, organizing elements by atomic mass and properties.

  • van Leeuwenhoek's discovery

    Early microscopist who discovered bacteria, protozoa, and other microorganisms.

  • Hooke's contribution to cell biology

    Examined cork under a microscope and coined the term cells for the structures observed.

  • Schleiden & Schwann's Cell Theory

    Proposed that all living things are composed of cells and cell products.

  • Redi's maggot experiment

    Disproved spontaneous generation by showing maggots come from flies, not decaying meat.

  • Pasteur's Swan Neck Flask experiment

    Disproved spontaneous generation of microorganisms using a flask that prevented contamination.

  • Robert Remak's cell discovery

    Showed that all cells come from pre-existing cells.

  • Esther Lederberg's Felt Pad technique

    Demonstrated that the environment selects for antibiotic resistance, but does not cause it.

  • Golgi's discovery

    Discovered the Golgi Apparatus, an important cell organelle involved in processing proteins.

  • Lynn Margulis' theory

    Proposed the endosymbiotic origin of mitochondria and chloroplasts in eukaryotic cells.

  • Miller & Urey experiment

    Showed that complex organic molecules can form from simple molecules under early Earth conditions.
