How many times have multicellular organisms evolved from unicells?

none :) a bacteria is considered to be unicellular but there are many bacteria that live in clusters or are filamentous, in that case the intercellular interaction is more important and we can in a way see that as a multicellular organism. Theoretically a bacteria is unicellular , always !!


Why do cells need to divide before they get too large?

They don't always divide, in multicellular organisms they typically just stop growing, in slime molds the cells can get more than a foot in diameter without dividing (they have tens of thousands of nuclei per cell).


Would the appearance of extracted DNA differ if it was taken from different organisms ie bacteria fungi plants or animals?

The Short Answer: is No, condensed Dna Always appears milky white, or at least mostly opaque.


Why doesn't fungus take over the world?

First bacteria already control the earth and always will. They cannot grow out of control for the same reason no organism can grow out of control: they run out of resources and die back to a level that the available resources are able to support. All organisms have a tendency to follow "boom-bust" cycles of growing out of control until they run too low on available resources, then collapse suddenly and catastrophically.


How do bacteria help keep ecosystems healthy?

it doesn't, well it goes into your system and sticks in to your insides of you organs and when they get washed away it takes all the other unwanted bacteria away it is not like that, bacteria decompose the dead organi material which present in the soil and converts it into chemicals so that life-cycle of ecosystem kept in balance.. nature always maintain itself by one way or other.. and bacteria are playing vital role in this process.

What domains of classification do prokaryotes include?

Prokaryotes are classified into two main domains: Bacteria and Archaea. These domains are based on differences in their genetic makeup, cellular structure, and metabolic processes. Bacteria are more commonly known and include a wide variety of single-celled organisms, while Archaea are less well-understood but are known to thrive in extreme environments.


How can we conserve nutrients in foods?

Cooking vegetables makes nutrients more available for the body to absorb, but overcooking can mean losing nutrients. Plant cell walls are broken down in cooking, which means the food can be more completely digested and used by the body. While potato should be well cooked, overcooking less starchy vegetables will result in loss of nutrients, so steaming or microwaving vegetables (so they are still crunchy) helps retain most nutrition. Meat should always be well cooked to destroy bacteria and make nutrients available for the body to absorb


How does MRSA relate to evolution?

By evolving! This methicillian resistant bacteria was not always that way, but as you may know every time an antibiotic is used there are always some variations of the bacteria that are resistant. They survive, reproduce and pass this resistance on to their progeny. And the process repeats so that soon, as bacterial generations are quick, you have super resistant bacteria. This is evolution by natural selection. Change in a population of organisms over time.
