Solution

Dear student.

Acellular or non-cellular both are the same terms, it means devoid of cells.

Acellular organisms are the ones that are not composed of cells while cellular organisms are made up of cells. Acellular organisms cannot divide, cannot reproduce on their own and lack the ability to synthesise proteins.

Regards.
