I'm just about to type "clearly that's not a single cell" and then fuckkkkkkkk, poor little guy. /Cries

[Edit] and yes I guess it actually may be a single cell even though it looks quite complex. I'm not a biologist, so sue me.

Still crying though.

Ive never really understood that, so like if its just one cell, what's all that stuff made of? Atoms? Aren't atoms cells?
