There are a range of slime moulds some of which are congregations of unicellular organisms and others are blobs of protoplasm. My creatures are not dissimilar to slime moulds, but metazoan versions. | |
Jul 25, 2016 at 11:20 | comment | added | nigel222 | I immediately thought not multicellular. A place where life consists of highly evolved slime moulds that can reproduce by merely dividing, but which have a sex-equivalent information-passing mode of merging two into one and then dividing into three or more. Interestingly alien if they are intelligent tool users! | |
