Ancient Protist May Hold Clues to Evolution of Multicellular LifeA team from the University of Geneva (UNIGE) has observed that this species forms multicellular structures that bear striking similarities to animal embryos. These observations suggest that the ...
To probe whether DGR might protect multicellular bacteria from infectious threats, the team chose pink berries, which are millimeter sized aggregates of bacteria living on the floor of salt marshes in ...
Macroalgae live in both fresh and seawater and are complex multicellular organisms with distinct organs and tissues, in ...
To put that in perspective, the Earth is thought to be about 4.5 billion years old, which means these "rocks"—really ...
All multicellular creatures interact with bacteria, but some have taken the relationship to another level with highly specialized structures that house, feed, and exploit the tiny organisms. For the ...

ZME Science on MSNScientists Revive 24,000-Year-Old ‘Zombie’ Microscopic Creatures Frozen in Siberian IceFor 24,000 years, tiny creatures lay dormant, entombed in the frozen depths of Siberia’s permafrost. These microscopic ...
Cell division allows for growth and replacement of dead cells. Most multicellular organisms are made of different cell types that are specialised to carry out specific functions. Control and ...
How does multicellularity evolve? Scientists who study a family of green algae that includes unicellular Chlamydomonas and multicellular Volvox are beginning to find answers to this question.
Here we see just two examples, heart cells (far left) and nerve cells, or neurons. Altogether, multicellular organisms like humans have thousands of differentiated cells. Each is optimized for use ...
Stem Cell Reports, the premier open access journal dedicated to advancing stem cell research, has been named the official ...
