In these living thing, cells are specialized in different functions.,THE CELL,UNICELLULAR ORGANISMS,Living things are made up of cells. A cell is the smallest living structure on Earth. Cells are living things because they carry out the three vital functions (nutrition, interaction and reproduction),Some living things are made up of just one cell; we call them unicellular (Eg.: some bacteria and algae).
