Perhaps the best way to describe a multicell storm is to contrast it with a single cell storm.
A single cell thunderstorm consists of s single cell of convection and just one updraft, isolated from any other thunderstorms. As the cell develops, the downdraft of cold air chokes off the warm updraft that powers the storm, eventually killing it.
A multicell storm contains several convective cells tightly packed together. Such clusters tend to be fairly self-sustaining. As one cell in the cluster dies, the cooled air rushing out from it acts like a miniature cold front, causing a new cell to develop.
A single cell thunderstorm, sometimes called a pulse storm, is the weakest and most common of the four main classes of thunderstorm. A single cell thunderstorm consists of an individual convective cell with its own updraft. Such a storm remains separate from nearby storms and usually lasts less than an hour. Single cell storms can occasionally produce brief periods of severe weather but rarely do. The other main classes of thunderstorms are multicell clusters, squall lines, and supercells.
No. A supercell is a type of thunderstorm. Most thunderstorms are not supercells.
A supercell is a kind of thunderstorm cell. A thunderstorm cell consists of a convective unit with its own updraft and downdraft. A supercell is the most powerful type of storm cell with a strong, rotating updraft and distinct updraft and downdraft regions.
A supercell is a large rotating thunderstorm that can produce severe weather, including tornadoes, hail, and strong winds.
No
well the thunderstorm builds to a super cell which is a sever thunderstorm then all it needs is a rotation
It is multi-celled

Onions are multicellular, but this term refers to the entire organism - you cannot call a single onion cell a "multi cell".
They are multi-cellular.

Multi cell types
A sea breeze may lead to a thunderstorm if the cool sea breeze forces warm air to rise which creates a convection cell that creates strong updrafts that lead to a thunderstorm. This is how a sea breeze may lead to the formation of a thunderstorm.
