No, bacteria are not multicellular organisms; they are unicellular. Bacteria consist of a single cell and are classified as prokaryotes, meaning they lack a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles. Each bacterial cell carries out all the necessary functions of life independently. In contrast, multicellular organisms, such as plants and animals, are composed of many cells that often specialize in different functions and work together to form tissues and organs.
