These complex multicellular organisms evolved from much simpler organisms, and those, in turn, evolved from single-celled ancestors. According to genomic and fossil data, the transition from single-celled organisms to multicellularity happened several times independently during evolution. What drove this transition to multicellularity? Researchers from Leiden University and the University of Amsterdam published a possible explanation for this transition in scientific journal eLife.&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n Click here for original story, <a href=\"https:\/\/phys.org\/news\/2020-10-mistakeswhy-cells-stuck-early-evolution.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Correcting each other&#8217;s mistakes\u2014why cells stuck together in early evolution<\/a>&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\nSource: Phys.org&#013;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Modern animals\u2014including humans\u2014are stunningly complex organisms made of many billions of cells that work together.
