Protists are distinguished from other eukaryotes by their simplicity. Protists have much simpler cells.
Plant-like protists are always Unicellular.
Protists and plants are similar because there euckaryotic.But they are different beacuse The best way to tell the difference between plants and plant-like protists is that plant cells are part of a bigger structure, whereas plant-like protists are always unicellular. Animal-like protists are even more different- for example, they are heterotrophs, so they can't make their food and don't have chloroplasts.

Plant like protists cannot be classified as plants because unlike plants, some plant like protists use chemicals to produce food which makes the protists look different colors.
Animal-like protists are autotrophic, while plant-like protists are heterotrophic.
Animal-like protists are autotrophic, while plant-like protists are heterotrophic.
A plant-like protista has chlorophyll in chloroplasts to make energy from the sunlight, and an animal-like protist gets its energy from other organisms. All plant-like protists are producers, while most animal-like protists are consumers, in other words.

Plant like protist
Protists and plants are classified in different domains: protists in the domain Eukaryota and plants in the domain Archaeplastida. Protists are a diverse group of eukaryotic organisms that do not fit strictly within the plant kingdom. Plants, on the other hand, have distinct characteristics such as cellulose cell walls and chlorophyll for photosynthesis that differentiate them from protists.
for Plato users none of the above plant like protists are called algae
The eye spot in plant like protists function as a sensory structure.
