Answer» The correct potion is:(b) 1 and 2 only Explanation The cell was discovered by Robert Hooke in 1665. The nucleus was the first organelle to be discovered. The oldest description of the nucleus was given by Anton van Leeuwenhoek (1632– 1723). But the nucleus was described in more detail for the first time in 1831 by Scottish botanist Robert Brown in a talk at the Linnean Society of London. Lysosomes are found in animal cells but their presence in yeasts and plant cells is disputed. |
