unicellular organism:
1. Unicellular organisms are the organisms which are composed of a single cell only.
2. In unicellular only the single cell functions.
3. There is no division of labour.
Multicellular organisms:
1. Multicellular organisms are organisms which have more than two cells.
2. Many cells work together in multicellular organisms.
3. there is division of labour

Hey
Here is your answer
What is the difference between unicellular and multicellular organism?
Unicellular organism
1.Body is made up of single cell
2.Division of labour is at the organelle level. It gives a low level of operational efficiency.
3. A single cell carries out all the life processes
4.The cell body is exposed to the environment on all sides
5. An injury of the cells can cause death of the organism.
6.A cell body cannot attain a large size because of the limit imposed by surface area to volume ratio
7.Lifespan is short due to heavy load of work.
8.Power of division is not lost
9.A well-marked capacity of regeneration is present
10.The cell has the same role for itself and the organism
Multicellular organism
1.Body is made up of numerous cells.
2.Division of labour may be at cellular, tissue, organ and organ system level. It gives high degree of operational efficiency.
3.Different cells are specialized to perform different functions.
4.Only outer cells are specialized to face the environment. Inner cells are devoted to other functions.
5.Injury or death of some cells does not affect the organisms as the same can be replaced by new one.
6.A multicellular body can attain a large size increasing the number of small cells.
7.Lifespan is long due to limited load of work for each cell type.
8.Certain specialized cells lose power of division.
9.The capacity of regeneration decreases with increasing specialization.
10.Cells have a double role. One for themselves and other for the organism.
Hope it helps
