These protists share many characteristivd with Fungi. However, because of their differences from Fungi they are classified as protists. Funguslike protists play a valuable role in the ecosystem. They break down dead plant and animal matter, making the nutrients from these dead orgainsms available for living organisms. While some slime molds and water molds are benefical, many others can be very harmful. Many fuguslike protsts attack and consume living plants.
There are actually three kinds:
Slime Molds
Downy Mildews
Water Molds

Yes

development of colonial forms where unicellular protists stuck together
No. Since it is a bacteria it is a prokaryote but it has cells that act together.
In a multicellular organism each cell has IRS own job to do. Together all the cells work towards a functioning organism. In human community everybody works together and everyone has their own job. :)
The answer you are looking for is "colonial" . Colonial organisms live together but if separated can survive on their own. Good luck on that quiz!
The only answer that there is available is no
Group name Myxomycota , eg. Physarum .
development of colonial forms where unicellular protists stuck together
multicellular
No, archaea and protists are very similar but they do not live together in colonies. Protists is anything that doesn't fit in the category of the other kingdoms. Hope this helped!
Your question needs a little bit of understanding of the facts. Organisms have cells that are either prokaryotic or eukaryotic. But prokaryotic cells don't form complex structures. They are found most of the time as one cell, sometimes are two together or a cluster or a string. Ex: the bacteria cocci, round-like, are found as just cocci (one) or two (dicocci) or a cluster (staphylococci) or a string (streptococci). So, eukaryotes are made of many cells that make tissues, organs, organ systems and organisms.
Multicellular organisms arise in various different ways, for example by cell division or by aggregation of many single cells.[2] Colonial organisms are the result of many identical individuals joining together to form a colony. However, it can often be hard to separate colonial protists from true multicellular organisms, because the two concepts are not distinct.

All eukaryotic lifeform (i.e. not bacteria or archaea) are grouped into four kingdoms: Plants, Animals, Fungi and Protists. A plant is a truly multicellular organism with cell walls composed of cellulose. They are typically autotrophic, meaning that they produce their own food, in this case via photosyntheses. An animal is a truly multicellular organism with no cell wall. They are heterotrophic, meaning that they cannot produce their own food and must seek nutrients from sources. A fungus is a truly multicellular organism with cell walls composed of chitin. They are heterotrophic. Protists are typically unicellular organisms, though occasionally they may lump together to form something that looks like a multicellular organisms, though unlike the others they will have no tissues. Depending on the protist, they may be heterotropic or autotrophic. Insects are multicellular organisms. The cells of an insect do not possess a cell wall. Insects obtain their nutrients from other sources by eating. This satisfies the criteria to be classified as animals.
Multi-cellular animals also called metazoans came from protists which were colonilized. These colonies of protists formed hollow spheres. These protists which were linked together into a hollow sphere may have had some form of specialization to then make tissue.
No. Instead, they use the flexable membrane that envelopes the cell.Related Information:In multicellular animals, these membranes are internally supported by the contents of the cell. Externally, they are supported by the glycocalyx cell coat, and are reinforced, supported, and bound together via integrins, intermediate filaments, the extracellular matrix, and other surrounding cells.Single cell animals, like most, but not all, protists, are also bound by this membrane, but lack the additional exterior support that the multicellular animals have.
