Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Cells are considered the basic units of life in part because they come in discrete and easily recognizable packages.

Detailed explanation-2: -The classical cell theory was proposed by Theodor Schwann in 1839. There are three parts to this theory. The first part states that all organisms are made of cells. The second part states that cells are the basic units of life.
