Question 20

What evidence is there to support that unicellular organisms are “alive”?

Answer 20

Unicellular organisms are alive because they perform all of the functions of life; respiration,obtain nutrients, respond to the environment, reproduce and eliminate waste.

Question 21

Explain the statement: “cells in a multicellular organism are more specialized than those of a unicellular organism”:

Answer 21

In a multicellular organism, different cells have special jobs unique to that type of cell. In a unicellular organism, one cell must perform all of the life functions.
