Science : Contribution by scientists

Dear student,
Please find below the answer:

• Antonie Van Leeuwenhoek was a Dutch scientist, who in 1632 invented the simple microscope.
• In 1675, he became the first person to observe microorganisms (bacteria and protozoa).
• His research was very important for the entire world of microscopic life.
• Before his discovery, some of the processes like grapes turning into wine, milk turning into curd, etc. were quite mysterious.
• By observing microorganisms, he established the fact that there exist life forms that are not visible to naked eyes. They were termed microorganisms and Antonie Van Leeuwenhoek is regarded as the Father of Microbiology.

Hope this clears your doubt.
Regards.
