Depending on the environment, dimorphic fungi can transition from a unicellular to a multicellular state. Yeasts are the common name for unicellular fungus.
Detailed explanation-2: -Fungi are the organisms that are eukaryotic. They can be both unicellular as well as multicellular. An example of unicellular fungi is Saccharomyces cerevisiae (yeast).
Detailed explanation-3: -Although dimorphic fungi can change from the unicellular to multicellular state (depending on environmental conditions), most fungi are actually multicellular organisms. They display two distinct morphological stages: the vegetative and reproductive.
Detailed explanation-4: -Examples of unicellular fungi are yeast. Puccinia, Albugo are examples of multicellular fungi.
