After indicating the didactic obstacles associated with this presentation, this paper focuses on the reasons underlying the persistence of these two prototypes, through three complementary interpretations: A pedagogical one: it was, and it is still today, easy to use onion skin and mouth epithelial cells at school, hence both of these kinds of cells became cell prototypes. A historical one: Schleiden worked on plant cells, and Schwann on animal cells; together they established common features between plant and animal cells (1838). A sociological one: since the emergence of the cell concept (19th century) and until recently, Zoology and Botany were clearly separated research fields. Today, besides these traditional animal and plant cell prototypes, a general "egg-cell model” is used increasingly to introduce and develop the cell concept.
