Chapter 44, Problem 1TYK
Summary Introduction
Introduction: Unlike multicellular organisms, the unicellular organisms contain only one cell, thus it is called a single-celled organism. Most of the individual think that the unicellular organism is prokaryotes. However, some of the eukaryotic organism contains only single cells. They are called unicellular eukaryotes. Some examples are protozoa such as paramecium, vorticella, and unicellular algae such as diatoms and dinoflagellates.
