Problem:

I read a story this week on Richard Lenski who has been 'evolving' E. coli for more than 50,000 generations now. One comment I read was from someone who doesn't accept Evolution who pointed out that we haven't seen a single celled organism 'evolve' into a multi-celled organism. Another person responded and said that a bacteria is not going to evolve into something that isn't a bacteria.

Required:

Question: If Evolution created single celled organisms and then multi-celled organisms how might that change have happened?

Question: Is it possible to recreate that set of driving forces to make a bacteria something other than a bacteria?

Questuin: What advantage does being multi-cellular have over being unicellular (if that's even a word)?

Please provide discription of all the answers.
