Can't answer that question because an organelle is a structure inside a cell;

whereas a unicellular organism is a single celled plant or animal.

The last includes plankton that make oxygen, and your gut bacteria that help you digest food.

They were here first ... and will be around long after we're dust.

Is archea mulitcellular or single-celled?

archaebacteria are the type of bacteria which dates back to the first forms of life on earth. And its my guess that bacteria are unicellular whether unicellular or multicellular


Is a turtle a multicellular or unicellular cell?

Turtles are multicellular. The vast majority of life forms that are not microscopic are multicellular.


What is the similarity between a multicellular and unicellular organism?

Unicellular organisms and multicellular organisms both contain the characteristics of life. Furthermore, both unicellular organisms and multicellular organisms follow the same genetic code and even contain the same organelles.


What is the main difference between the ways unicellular and multicellular organisms are organized?

The difference is that a unicellular organism has one cell and has a shorter life, is much smaller, and has a larger amount of predators. A multicellular organism has a larger size meaning less predators and larger animals, longer life because unlike unicellular organism who just die after losing its only cell a multicellular organism stays alive, and a big difference is multicellular organism have specialized cells like heart muscle cells, and brain cells.


What is a unicellulars job in a cell?

I think you might want to look at your question again. A unicellular organism doesn't have a job in a cell because they are a cell. Unicellular organisms consist of only one cell (such as an amoeba) and the cell has to carry out all necessary life functions. Multicellular organisms are composed of more than one cell, or more than one type of cell. In this case, cells can become specialized and carry out different functions. There are many individual parts of a cell, such as a nucleus, cell membrane, ribosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, etc. These are found in unicellular organisms and cells of multicellular organisms.

Did unicellular or multicellular organisms evolve first?

Unicellular organisms evolved first; and from them evolved the multicellular organisms. But that leads onto another question as to why multicellular organisms evolved.


In a multicellular organism organs carry out a variety of life functions. In a single-called organism these functions are performed by?

Organelle


Are prokaryotes unicellular?

Not all prokaryotes are unicellular. A few prokaryotes such as myxobacteria have multicellular stages in their life cycles.


Why do multicellular organisms generally live longer than unicellular orgamism?

A multicellular organism usually lives longer than a one cell organism. A one celled organism is limited to the life span of it's one cell. Different tissues in a multicellular organism perform different functions and new cells and tissues are added in these organisms by cell division hence life span in multicellular organisms is longer than unicellular organisms.

Can prokaryotes be multicellular?

They are primarily unicellular, but in rare cases they are multicellular, e.g. , myxobacteria have multicellular stages in their life.

What is the main difference the way unicellular and multicellular organisms are organized?

In unicellular organisms, all the functions to carry out life is taken place by only single cell like digestion, respiration, excreation, etc. where as in multicellular organisms different functions are carried by different organs consisting of different type of cells like Red Blood cells helps in respiration and liver cells helps in digestion and leukocytes helps in immunity so they are divided according to their function but work with coordinate to each other where as, as said earlier in unicellular organisms the single cell works independently.
