A multicellular organism has a longer lifespan than an unicellular organism and since it has multiple cells, it can perform more functions than a unicellular organism.They can do lots of other things that a unicellular organism can not because it has more cells to complete more jobs

Hope it helps. Plz mark me as brainliest.

ADVANTAGES OF MULTICELLULARITY-

1)Can live in a wide variety of environments because they can be moist on the inside and dry on the outside

2)Can grow very large

3)Live longer than unicellular organism

4)Can work more efficiently because they have cells organized into tissues to do certain jobs (functions)

Also,to elaborate-

1. Intelligence and Evolution.
There are 2 types of cellular organisms that exist with these being unicellular and multicellular. Being multicellular allows an organism to develop a higher level of adaptation to its surroundings. This is known as cell complexity and can lead to an organism becoming more intelligent via contact with its surroundings. When talking about evolution, this is where multicellular organisms have the advantage as the many types of cells contained in a complex cellular organism enable it to adapt, change and survive.

2. Bigger Is Better.
Being multicellular (an organism that has complex cells) means that it must have size. Being larger has it benefits as it can minimize the risk of becoming prey. In the confusing world of the food chain, it is a given that the larger the organism, the better its chances are of reaching sexual maturity and reproducing. Being small can have its advantages too though, such as less adaptation needed to survive in extreme temperatures. One part of the body that can lead to success with reaching maturity is the brain, and in humans having a large brain has not only helped us thrive but to become leaders in the world of life.

3. Less Stress Equals A Longer Lifespan.
Having a complex cell structure means that an organism will have multiple cells that perform many different functions. Having multiple cell structures can help an organism develop strength and intelligence. This means that a single cell does not need to perform all of the functions required to survive and instead works in harmony with millions of other cells with each taking on its own unique role. How is this a good thing? Well, it leads to less work for the cells which means that they can have a longer lifespan and much less stress.

4. Cells Can Take Care Of Each Other.
Production and repair of damaged cells in a multicellular organism are achieved by employing other cell types that act as worker cells. Basically, these worker cells are the ones that enable the healing of wounds, the regrowth of limbs and body parts and the repair to cellular damage from toxins and bacteria attacking the system.
