Since individual cells remain separate, the slug and the fruiting phase can be considered one of the simplest multicellular organisms, and a cellular slime mold called Dictyostelim (or &quot;Dicty&quot; for short) is commonly used to study cell-to-cell interactions and cell differentiation (yes, it too has been up in the space shuttle!).
