O rganisms like the amoeba, P aramecium are single-celled organisms, they are the oldest forms of life, they existed about 3.8 million years ago.

Eukaryotes. Eukaryotes are organisms made up of cells that possess a membrane-bound nucleus (that holds genetic material) as well as membrane-bound organelles. Genetic material in eukaryotes is contained within a nucleus within the cell and DNA is organized into chromosomes.Eukaryotic organisms may be multicellular or single-celled organisms. All animals are eukaryotes. Other eukaryotes include plants, fungi, and protists.rokaryotes are organisms made up of cells that lack a cell nucleus or any membrane-encased organelles.
