The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Question**: The question asks for the term used to describe single-celled organisms. 2. **Identifying Options**: We have four options to choose from: - Option 1: Unicellular - Option 2: Multicellular - Option 3: Both of these - Option 4: None of these 3. **Defining Unicellular**: Unicellular organisms are those that consist of only one cell. An example of a unicellular organism is amoeba, which is made up of a single cell. 4. **Defining Multicellular**: Multicellular organisms are those that are made up of more than one cell. Examples include plants and animals, which can have millions of cells. 5. **Analyzing the Options**: - Option 1 (Unicellular) is correct because it directly refers to single-celled organisms. - Option 2 (Multicellular) is incorrect because it refers to organisms made up of multiple cells. - Option 3 (Both of these) is incorrect as it includes multicellular organisms, which do not fit the definition of single-celled organisms. - Option 4 (None of these) is also incorrect because we have a valid option. 6. **Conclusion**: The correct answer is Option 1: Unicellular. **Final Answer**: Single-celled organisms are called **unicellular**. ---
