Answer: Option C) The unicellular organism creates a new organism.

Explanation:

Cell division involves the multiplication of cells whereby one cell divides into two daughter cells or offsprings, two divides into four and so on.

In unicellular organisms, cell division could be by the following ways:

- Binary fission in Ameoba

- Budding in Hydra

- fragmentation in Sponges.

Thus, each of these unicellular organisms divides to give rise to new organisms that are similar to their parents
