Protist may be unicellular or multicellular , they can also be heterotrophic or autotrophic. All protist are eukaryotes, which means that most of their metabolic processes occur inside their membrane-bound organelles

∙ 9y agoNo, not all protists are considered to be autotrophs. Autotrophs are plantlike that gain energy from photosynthesis, while some protists are heterotrophs and gain energy from other organisms.

∙ 13y agoYes they are Heterotrophic. Note that,They are not Saprophytes....OMASTERSIAYA

∙ 9y agoNo, not all protozoans are heterotrophic, but almost all of them are. Heterotrophic means they have no way to produce their own food and have to seek it out.

List two heterotrophic protists that move?
PROTOZOANS
Is protoza an autotroph or hetrotroph?
While some autotrophs are categorized by some scientists as protozoans e.g., Euglena, most consider protozoans to be those single-celled organisms that are heterotrophic.
Are all bacteria heterotrophs?
no, some bacteria are heterotrophic and some are autotrophic. Most bacteria are heterotrophic though.
Are fungi cells autotrophic or heterotrophic and why?
All fungi are heterotrophic as they do not preform photosynthesis and generally decompose organic matter for food.
Do Heterotrophic bacteria have to do photosynthesis to live?
no. -heterotrophs (including heterotrophic bacteria) are consumers, an organism that obtains energy from organic matter. all animals are heterotrophs.
Protozoans differ from algae?
Protozoans are heterotrophic, whereas algae are autotrophic.

Are all protozoans prokaryotic and autorophic?
Protozoans are eukaryote and not all are autotrophic.
What characteristic do all protozoans share?
They are all eukaryotes, and live in moist surroundings.Most protozoans are unicellular, but not all.
Are elephant shrews autotrophic or heterotrophic?
Like all animals they are heterotrophic.
Is a jellyfish autotrophic or heterotrophic?
A jellyfish is heterotrophic, because it is classified as an animal. All animals are heterotrophic.
Is a muscle cell autotrophic or heterotrophic?
It's heterotrophic because it's an animal cell and all animal cells are heterotrophic
Are protista autotrophic or hetertrophic?
They can be either heterotrophic or autotrophic. they are grouped into three categorys. Animal-like, Plant-like, and fungus-like.I got info from here:http://www.lanesville.k12.in.us/lcsyellowpages/Tickit/Carl/protists.htmlit has way more info on that site.
Are all bacteria heterotrophs?
no, some bacteria are heterotrophic and some are autotrophic. Most bacteria are heterotrophic though.
Is Steptococcus pneumonia Autotrph or Hetroph?
All the pathogenic bacteria or for that purpose all the bacteria are heterotrophs.
What are all protozoans because they take in food?
Pathogens
