**Prefix:**

 * unicellular ** **uni = one** therefore the word means **one cell. Sentence: A yeast is unicellular.**
 * multicellular ** **multi = many** therefore the word means **many cells. Sentence: Humans are multicellular.**

Prefix and Root:

 * prokaryote ** **pro = before and karyon = nucleus** therefore the word means **before a nucleus**
 * Sentence: Bacteria are prokayotes without a nucleus.**


 * eukaryote ** **eu = true** **and** **karyon = nucleus** therefore the word means **with a true nucleus**
 * Sentence: All cells in the human body are eukaryotes except for red blood cells that do not have a nucleus.**
