Answer:

All livings organisms are with unicellular origin. The cells have a common structure like cell membrane, DNA , RNA and necessary enzymes. The genetic code of protein synthesis is almost similar with few exceptions. This shows unity in design.

Further evolutionary changes took place due to environmental stress. The genome of each species is designed as per need and efficiency. This is diversity.

This is true with all five kingdoms of life that is monera, protista, fungi, plantae and animalia.
