“Although C. perkinsii is a unicellular species this behavior shows that multicellular coordination and differentiation processes are already present in the species, well before the first animal ...

And what exactly is a species, for that matter ... plants and fungi — as well as some types of unicellular life, are eukaryotes. Bacteria and Archaea are single-celled microorganisms that ...
