  • Rudolf Virchow has done many important discoveries. He is best known for his contribution to the cell theory. He gave the statement that "Omnis cellula e cellula." According to him, all living cells arise from pre-existing living cells.
  • He first explained how new cells are formed from the existing cells. He modified the hypothesis of Schleiden and Schwann to give the cell theory a final shape.
  • According to Schleiden and Schwann, the cells budded out from the nucleus.

Thus, the correct answer is 'He proposed to Cell Theory but this theory did not explain how new cells are formed.'
