    Unicellular life

    Unicellular life
    Life on earth evolved from a single cell millions of years ago. These single cells are known as unicellular organisms. All the life processes in a unicellular organism, including digestion, excretion, respiration, occur within a single cell. These cannot be seen by naked eyes and are hence called microorganisms.
