What else can I help you with?
What transport mechanism do one celled colonial and simple multicellular organisms rely on?
These organisms use simple diffusion as a transport mechanism.This is possible because of the small size of the organisms. Diffusion is effective over small distances but as size increases it becomes less and less efficient.
Can you have 5 living organisms that depend on diffusion?
Yes, living organisms that depend on diffusion for processes like respiration or nutrient exchange include single-celled organisms like protozoa, small invertebrates like flatworms and roundworms, aquatic organisms like sponges, and even some small insects. Diffusion allows them to exchange gases, nutrients, and waste products with their environment, essential for their survival.
How does a single celled organism get its nutrients?
Easy!! diffusion.. because single celled organisms have a large surface area to volume ratio meaning that there exchange surface is large enough to allow efficient diffusion fast enough to keep the cells alive (1 cell.. lol ). they also aren't very active they can rely on diffusion alone to take up water and other important solutes.. Diffusion through osmosis occurs in single celled organisms when they have a lower water potential inside the cell than outside so water flows into the cell (down the concentration gradient) via a partially permeable membrane. hope that helped from Kate Gibson 16
Bacteria are single celled organisms?
yes bacteria is a single celled organisms.
Are fungi one celled or many celled organisms?
They are multicellular, complex organisms.

These organisms use simple diffusion as a transport mechanism.This is possible because of the small size of the organisms. Diffusion is effective over small distances but as size increases it becomes less and less efficient.
Name the organisms that absorb oxygen by diffusion?
Small aquatic organisms like single-celled bacteria, protozoa, and some aquatic invertebrates absorb oxygen by diffusion through their body surface, since they have a high surface area to volume ratio which allows for efficient exchange of gases.

Why is diffusion insufficient to meet the oxygen requirements of multicellular organisms like humans?
In single-celled organisms the entire surface of the organisms is in contact with the environments for the diffusion of substances. In multi-cellular organisms all the cells may not be in direct contact with the surrounding environment. So simple diffusion will not meet the requirements of all the cells.

How do single celled organisms get oxygen?
Single-celled organisms typically absorb oxygen directly from their environment through a process known as diffusion. Oxygen molecules move from areas of high concentration to low concentration, allowing these organisms to take in oxygen from their surroundings to support their metabolic processes.
What are on-celled organisms called?
One celled organisms are called unicellular organisms.
What features of most single-celled organisms enable them to carry on their life activities and maintain homeostasis?
ORGANELLES
How does growth in single-celled organisms differ from growth in many-celled organisms?
cause many celled organisms grow faster
Are there more single-celled or multi-celled organisms on earth?
There are more single-celled organisms on Earth than multi-celled organisms. Single-celled organisms, such as bacteria and protists, are abundant and diverse, occupying various environments. Multi-celled organisms, including plants, animals, and fungi, represent a smaller proportion of Earth's biodiversity.
Are fungi one celled or many celled organisms?
They are multicellular, complex organisms.
Are prokaryotes one celled organisms?
yes one-celled organisms are prokaryotic.
