What are some disadvantages to being multicellular?

We can comprehend by using examples, such as the unicellular amoeba and the multicellular human.

*Compared to Amoeba, we are more complex.

• Because our alimentary canal is so lengthy and divided into numerous sections, food digests more slowly in us than it does in amoebas, which lack this kind of canal and have a faster rate of food digestion.

*Our bodies perform a lot of intricate tasks, such as breathing and digesting food.

We can put it this way: as we become multicellular, our bodies become more complex and eventually produce results.

Being multicellular has several drawbacks, such as higher energy needs, susceptibility to illnesses and infections, coordination and communication issues between cells, possibility of cancer-causing mutations, and reliance on an intricate and effective transport system for the removal of waste and nutrients.
