Slime molds do not resemble plants, animals, or fungi.
What else can I help you with?
Protists that do not resemble plants animals or fungi biologically called?
slime molds
Are protists heterotroph or autotrophs?
protists can be either one. some protists resemble animals, heterotrophic, while some resemble plants, photosynthic.
Are protist plants?
some Protists resemble plants in that they produce their own food by photosynthesis whilst others resemble animals by consuming organic matter for food. Protists are now considered to be a separate taxonomic kingdom
Is protists autotrophic or heterotrophic?
Protists can be either autotrophic or heterotrophic. Autotrophic protists are able to produce their own food through photosynthesis, while heterotrophic protists must obtain their food by consuming other organisms.
How are the different types of protist classified?
Protists are either unicellular of multicellular organisms. Different types of protists are classified by the characteristics that resemble those of fungi, plants, and animals.
Heterotrophic protists are called?
Protists are eukaryotes and live in water or in watery tissues of organisms. Some protists resemble plants in that they produce their own food by photosynthesis, while others resemble animals in consuming organic matter for food. Protist cells are often structurally much more elaborate than the cells of multicellular plants and animals. Protists include the protozoans, most algae, diatoms, oomycetes, and the slime molds. Also called protoctist. Heterotrophic protists are the ones that need to feed on other organic matter. They Cannot produce their own food via photosynthesis or other internal chemical reactions.
Plantlike protists are considered to be?
Plants are like protist in that they have a relatively simple organization.
What are plants certain protists and monerans called?
Plants, certain protists, and monerans are collectively called autotrophs, as they are able to produce their own food through photosynthesis or other processes without needing to consume other organisms for nutrition.
Why are spider plants called spider plants?
Spider plants are called spider plants because of their long, thin leaves that resemble spider legs, giving them a spider-like appearance.
What are plantlike protists called?
Plantlike protists are called algae. These organisms can be unicellular or multicellular, and they can photosynthesize like plants. Algae play a crucial role in aquatic ecosystems as primary producers.
Why might someone confuse protists with plants and how are they different?
protists are unicellular
Are protists microrganisms?
Generally they are, but some plant like protists such as Rhodophyta and Chlorophyta are large multicelled protist seaweeds that closely resemble plants. Instead of roots they have holdfasts that anchor them to the sea floor, instead of stems they have stipes and instead of leaves they have blades that hold chloroplasts for photosynthetic purposes.
