Question

leaf cells of a bean plant, a multicellular
organism
a unicellular organism called a bacterium
a unicellular organism called a protist
skin cells of a frog, a multicellular
organism
which of the following statements are true about the organisms shown in the
micrographs above? select all that apply.
the bacterium has many cells, and the frog has only one cell.
the cells of the protist and the bacterium are the same shape.
the protist has one cell, and the bean plant has many cells.
the bean plant is made up of cells but the frog is not.

Explanation:

• Bacterium is a unicellular organism, so it has one cell. Frog is a multicellular organism, so it has many cells. So the first statement is false.
• From the micrographs, the cell shapes of protist and bacterium are different. So the second statement is false.
• Protist is unicellular (one cell), bean plant is multicellular (many cells). So the third statement is true.
• Both bean plant and frog are made up of cells. So the fourth statement is false.

Answer:

The protist has one cell, and the bean plant has many cells.
