The earliest multicellular organisms may have lacked heads, legs, or arms, but pieces of them remain inside of us today, new research shows. According to a new study, 555-million-year-old oceanic creatures from the Ediacaran period share genes with today's animals, including humans. news.ucr.edu/articles/202β¦
Why aren't individual cells in multicellular organisms classified taxonomically?
The types of cells found in multicellular organisms are just several ancient cell species who formed a symbiotic relationship and evolved alongside each other until they can't survive individually... Right?
I understand they aren't technically considered life but it seems semantic to me... Are we alive or are we just a complex blob of (actually) alive organisms?
Saying thereβs no bad dogs only bad people leads us to thereβs no bad people only bad parents, which leads to a recursive function that ends with the original multicellular organism being a jerk.

Multicellular organisms are straight up hive minds.
Researchers watched in real time as a single-celled algae evolved into a multicellular organism. The transition took place over the course of 50 weeks and was caused simply by the introduction of a predator to the environment.

Alternate timeline where multicellular life never evolved, making Bacteria Rex the largest organism (drawn to actual size)
You wake up and you discover you have the power to change into any multicellular organism at will. What would you do?
So bacteria are the first organisms to appear on earth and from them all complicated and multicellular organisms came.
Why are bacteria are still surviving as such Without much changes although they are the oldest? While the great apes from which Humans came died and disappeaed completely?
Organisms that live around hydrothermal vents do not rely on sunlight and photosynthesis. Instead, archaea, the first living organisms in existence, use a process called chemosynthesis to convert toxic minerals and chemicals into nutrients. Without them, no multicellular life would exist on Earth.
Despite its appearance, the Portuguese man o' war is not a true jellyfish but a siphonophore, which is not an individual multicellular organism (true jellyfishes are single organisms), but a colonial organism made up of many specialized animals of the same species, called zooids or polyps en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Porβ¦

Was it the evolution of Mitochondria, or something else?
How do cells in a multicellular organism stick together and how do they know which cells to stick to?

Can we find out if this is true by fossils? Or can we find out by using other fields?
