Question
Is the following statement correct? If it is wrong, correct the statement. “Unicellular organisms do not respire, only multicellular organisms respire”

The difference is that all the functions are performed by the single cell in a unicellular organism. Similar functions in multicellular organisms are performed by various organs (organ system) which are made up of many different types of cells.
