Unicellular organisms contain a single cell and are microscopic, while multicellular organisms contain multiple eukaryotic cells and are macroscopic. The cell theory developed by Theodor Schwann and Matthias Schleiden states that all living things are composed of cells, cells are the basic unit of life, and new cells are produced from existing cells. Prokaryotic cells lack a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles, while eukaryotic cells have a nucleus that contains DNA and other membrane-bound structures.

State the differences and or similarities of unicellular and multicellular
organisms - A unicellular organism contains a single cell. A multicellular organism contains multiple cells. Unicellular organisms are Microscopic while Multicellular organisms is Macroscopic, unicellular includes organisms having both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cell types while multicellular while multicellular includes organisms comprising only eukaryotic cell types. The life span of a unicellular is short while the multicellular is long. Unicellular organisms show a greater tendency to regenerate while Multicellular organism shows low regeneration ability. 2. What is cell theory - Cell theory states that living things are composed of one or more cells, that the cell is the basic unit of life, and that cells arise from existing cells.
3. Name the scientist behind the development of the cell theory
- Theodor Schwann and Matthias Jakob Schleiden 4. Give 3 differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cell regarding their structure - eukaryotic cells have a membrane-bound nucleus and prokaryotic cells do not. The nucleus is where eukaryotes store their genetic information. In prokaryotes, DNA is bundled together in the nucleoid region, but it is not stored within a membrane-bound nucleus. - The nucleus is only one of many membrane-bound organelles in eukaryotes. Prokaryotes, on the other hand, have no membrane-bound organelles. Another important difference is the DNA structure. Eukaryote DNA consists of multiple molecules of double-stranded linear DNA, while that of prokaryotes is double-stranded and circular. 5. Amphipathic molecules contain hydrophilic and hydrophobic parts. What differences does this two has/have - The hydrophilic part is a water loving molecule (polar) while the hydrophobic part is not water loving(non-polar). 6. How can the fluidity of the cell membrane be describe? - 7. What is selective permeability - The cell membrane's selective permeability refers to its ability to distinguish between different types of molecules and being permeable to only certain molecules and not to all molecules 8. What is/are the functions of transport proteins - Transport protein allows hydrophilic substances to cross the membrane 9. Name the three transport proteins - Carrier Protein - Channel protein - Gated channel protein 10.State the difference(s) of passive transport (passive diffusion) and the active transport (active diffusion - Passive transport does not need ATP to transport molecules while the active transport needs ATP to transport.
