What is the cell theory? Who propounded it and when?

The Cell Theory states three major points -

1. The cell is the smallest unit of structure of all living thing
2. The cell is the unit of function of all living things
3. All cells arise from pre-existing cells.

The theory was propounded in 1839 by Schwann and Schleiden. Rudolf Virchow in 1858 made an addition to the cell theory by saying that all cells arise from pre-existing cells.
