Bacteria are prokaryotic while protists are eukaryotic. Bacteria DNA is not contained within a nucleus, and it is circular, whereas in eukaryotes the DNA is found in compact chromosomes.

Protists are divided into three groups: protozoa (animal-like protists), algae (plant-like protists), and slime moulds (fungi-like protists). They do not fit into the kingdoms animalia, plantae, or fungi, but they are eukaryotic (like the members of those kingdoms).
