Single-celled animals are known as protozoa.

An amoeba is protozoan, and probably the organism with which most students are familiar. Others include paramecium, euglena, and chlamydomonas, but the list is long.

Prior to the current classifications of single celled organisms, there was scientific community consensus (as published in school Biology Texts) that there existed (prior to the Amoeba/Paramecium) a single-celled multi-kingdom eglena (now most refs. as euglena in the plant kingdom) that is both kingdoms in one cell.

That is to say, The Original Single-cell held keys to; become algae (current euglena) or amoeba (able to feed self, mobile) and in either case could reproduce without a second cell or self seeding.

Today the classification of terms such as euglenoid movement, eukaryote (also spelled eucaryote,) and the Greek glene (pron. marks over each e) which means "Eyeball" in American English.

There is no current evidence that any of these one-celled Animal-Plants have either been found or investigated. (lol = ..."...working on PENIS.")

Ahem...

  1. Bacteria
  2. Germs

You get it, huh? To put it more scientifically...

Microscopic animals; cannot be seen to the naked eye. Microbes, for example, are tiny animals which cannot be seen without a microscope.

By animals you could be referring to any living thing, lets use Darwin's 'Origin of Species and natural selection' to be a guide. Then the answer would be a positive 'Yes' starting with single celled bacteria, single celled 'ocean plankton' even a human fetus starts out with one egg cell that rapidly divides itself continually until birth. And I'm probably leaving something out but I think your basic question has been asked and answered.

Protozoa like the Amoeba and Paramecium were traditionally considered single celled animals although most biologists now classify them in a separate kingdom.
