They get there nutrients through photosynthesis because there plants and make there own food .
Animal-like protists are autotrophic, while plant-like protists are heterotrophic.
Animal-like protists are autotrophic, while plant-like protists are heterotrophic.
Plant like protist
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 mostlyunicellular.Animal-like protists are even more different- for example, they are heterotrophs, so they can't make their food and don't have chloroplasts.
It smells goooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooo ooood!Some are autotrophic; these are called plant-like protists. Some are heterotrophic; these are animal-like protists. Some gain nutrients like fungi; by absorbing nutrients from decaying organic matter.
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.
Fungus-like protists, such as slime molds, obtain nutrients by engulfing organic matter and breaking it down using enzymes. They are heterotrophic organisms that feed on decaying plant material, bacteria, and other microorganisms. This process of obtaining nutrients is similar to how fungi obtain their nutrition.
algae
they are plant-like protists
False. They are plant-like protists.
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.
