What disadvantages do Unicellular organisms have when compared to Multicellular organisms?
Colonies of unicellular organisms can work together.
Are ciliates unicellular or multi cellular?
Protists include unicellular, colonial and multicellular organisms Most protists are unicellular although (only one group) can be multicellular. There are types of algae, green algae known as Ulva, that are multicellular protists. They begin as colonies of unicellular protists known as Volvax, but the ones that break away are the multicellular version. The multicellular protists are without any specialized tissues. Protists used to be considered soley unicellular. Now that the molecular information has been redifined, protists are both unicellular and multicellular. .
Do some colonies of multicellular organisms have specialized cells?
Multicellular organisms, of course! Unicellular organisms have one cell, so no cellular specialization.
Why do unicellular organisms live in colonies?
to get protection
Kingdom made up of unicellular eukaryotes?
Protista. However, not all members of the kingdom protista are unicellular. Some may be multicellular, or may even live in colonies. Some members of fungi are also unicellular, such as yeast.
Groups of unicellular organisms that live and function together are called?
Colonies
What are most organisms in the kingdom that are unicellular while others form colonies?
protist
How would you distinguish a large colonial organisms from a multicellular organism?
Multicellular organisms are organisms with more than one cell, the cells of which are usually specialized. A large colonial organism is an organism of many cells that are loosely attached to each other and that show little or no specialization among themselves. Multicellular organisms are capable of surviving on their own while colonial organisms are not.
What protists are multicellular?
Most of the members of the Protist Kingdom are unicellular, however, there are a few species that, though simple, their structure and composition is multicellular, such as some species of algae, like the seaweed or 'kelp'.
Describesan organism that can exist only as a group of cells?
Multicellular organisms contain more than one cells to perform important functions. Multicellular organisms like the bacterial colonies and fungi like the mushrooms and, animals and human beings are multicellular organisms that exist only as a group of cells
How many cells do bateria have?
Bacteria are unicellular organisms; one cell. Some bacteria for cooperative colonies though.
Difference between multicellular organisims and colonies of unicellar organisms?
multicellular organisims are organisims that have more than one cell like a turtle has more than one cell or a lion.
