  • What does the term 'organism' refer to in biology?
    The term 'organism' refers to any individual form of life, including both unicellular and multicellular forms.
  • What is the difference between unicellular and multicellular organisms?
    Unicellular organisms consist of a single cell, while multicellular organisms are composed of multiple cells.
  • How are unicellular organisms typically observed?
    Unicellular organisms are usually so small that they can only be seen with microscopes.
  • What does the root 'uni' in 'unicellular' mean?
    The root 'uni' in 'unicellular' means one.

    The root 'multi' in 'multicellular' means multiple or many.
  • Why are humans considered multicellular organisms?
    Humans are considered multicellular organisms because they consist of trillions of cells.
  • What is an example of a multicellular organism?
