A strawberry has about 1 million cells, but an entire strawberry plant
has many more cells. When you grow to an adult, your body will have
about 40 trillion cells! Do you expect that all of the cells in a
multicellular organism will be similar or different? Give reasons for
your answer.

Answer: No, individual cells in a multicellular organism are not the same.

Explanation:

Cells become specialized for different uses. For example, a human skin cell and a human stomach cell are not the same things. One is used for protection, and the other is used to digest food and resist stomach acid. In a strawberry, a cell of the fruit itself is not the same as a stem or a leaf cell, which allow the plant to collect sunlight through photosynthesis.
