Propose a hypothesis for the evolution of life on earth from single-celled organisms to multicellular organisms. what is the most significant step in the evolution of multicellularity?

there are tree hypothesis

Explanation:

There are several mechanisms by which multicellularity could have evolved:

1. A group of cells were added in a slug-shaped mass called grex, which was moved as a multicellular unit, as the Myxomycota do.

2. The primitive cell suffered an incomplete division of the cell nucleus generating a cell with multiple nuclei or syncytium. Next, membranes formed around each nucleus and the space was occupied by organelles. This resulted in a group of cells connected in an organism, an observable mechanism in Drosophila.

3. Daughter cells did not separate after cell division, resulting in a conglomeration of identical cells in an organism, which later developed specialized functions. This is observed in embryos of plants, animals and colonial cyanoflagellates.

glacial erosion, the picking up and movement of earth beneath a glacier, is also referred to as plucking. erosion and transportation of individual pieces of bedrock, especially large "joint block occur as a result of this glacial erosion. plucking is type of erosion in which rocks become frozen into the bottom and sides of the glacier.as the glacier moves downhill it 'plucks' the rocks frozen into the glacier from the ground.
