Answer:

Unicellular; multicellular

Step-by-step explanation:

The cell of a "unicellular" organism must carry out all of its life functions; an organism made up of more than one cell is called a "multicellular" organism.

A unicellular organism is an organism with a single cell. That single cell must take up and carry out all of the functions to keep the entire organism alive. Common examples of a unicellular organism are Protista, and Escherichia coli which are single celled bacteria or are unicellular.

Multicellular organisms are organisms with more than one cell. Common examples of multicellular organisms are humans, and plants. Both have more than one cell that help the organism live.

Hope this helps.
