Question

complete the table to describe the organisms shown in the micrographs above.
characteristic\tamoeba\thamster
made up of one cell\t□\t□
made up of many cells\t□\t□
essential processes happen in a cell\t□\t□
a cell is its basic unit of structure\t□\t□

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze the characteristics of amoeba (a unicellular organism) and hamster (a multicellular organism) based on cell theory concepts:

For "made up of one cell":

• Amoeba: Unicellular (so mark ✔️).
• Hamster: Multicellular (so mark ❌).

For "made up of many cells":

• Amoeba: Unicellular (so mark ❌).
• Hamster: Multicellular (so mark ✔️).

For "essential processes happen in a cell":

• Amoeba: All life processes (e.g., respiration, nutrition) occur in its single cell (✔️).
• Hamster: Each cell (and cells as a group) performs essential processes (✔️).

For "a cell is its basic unit of structure":

• Amoeba: Single cell is its structural unit (✔️).
• Hamster: Cells are the basic structural units of its body (✔️).

Filling the table:

Characteristic	Amoeba	Hamster
made up of many cells	❌	✔️
essential processes happen in a cell	✔️	✔️
a cell is its basic unit of structure	✔️	✔️

(Note: Use checkmarks or "yes"/"no" as per the table’s input format; the above shows the logical marking.)
