Unicellular organism (6)
I believe the answer is:
amoeba
'unicellular organism' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for amoeba that I've seen before include "Microscopic organism consisting of a single cell changing constantly" , "Unicellular living thing" , "Tiny organism consisting of single changing cell" , "Microscopic organism of single cell constantly changing shape" , "Protozoan of ever-changing shape" .)
