The correct response is:

Unicellular organisms have a cell membrane made from a lipid bilayer; viruses have a protein coat.

This statement accurately distinguishes between unicellular organisms, which are composed of cells with membranes, and viruses, which are made up of a protein coat surrounding their genetic material and do not have a cellular structure or cell membrane.
