Which statement best defines multicellularity in eukaryotic organisms?
A
Multicellularity refers to organisms that reproduce through binary fission.
B
Multicellularity refers to organisms composed of multiple cells that work together, each with specialized functions.
C
Multicellularity refers to organisms that have a single cell with multiple nuclei.
D
Multicellularity refers to organisms that can survive independently without any cellular specialization.
Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the concept of multicellularity: Multicellularity in eukaryotic organisms refers to the condition where an organism is composed of multiple cells that work together, each with specialized functions.
Recognize the importance of cellular specialization: In multicellular organisms, different cells have specialized roles, such as muscle cells for movement, nerve cells for signaling, and blood cells for transport.
Distinguish multicellularity from other forms of cellular organization: Unlike unicellular organisms, which consist of a single cell, multicellular organisms have many cells that coordinate to perform complex functions.
Consider the evolutionary advantage: Multicellularity allows for greater complexity and adaptability, enabling organisms to occupy diverse ecological niches.
Identify the incorrect statements: Multicellularity does not refer to binary fission, single cells with multiple nuclei, or organisms surviving independently without specialization.
