The world would look very different without multicellular organisms—take away the plants, animals, fungi, and seaweed, and Earth starts to look like a wetter, greener version of Mars. But precisely how multicellular organisms evolved from single-celled ancestors remains poorly understood. Read more at In this video: Internal structure of the yeast. The researchers imaged thousands of ultrathin slices of the yeast using a scanning electron microscope.
