Answer
From a cellular perspective, Amoeba and earthworms differ significantly in their organization:
- Amoeba is a unicellular organism, meaning its entire body consists of just one cell that performs all life functions independently, including feeding, respiration, excretion, and reproduction.
- Earthworm is a multicellular organism, composed of millions of specialized cells organized into tissues and organs that work together to carry out different life processes.
This distinction represents two fundamental organizational levels in living organisms: single-celled (unicellular) versus many-celled (multicellular) life forms.
