What is the difference between a protist and a moneran?

Answer 1

Protists:

• No tissues, just organelles
• Can be heterotrophic or autotrophic
• No cell walls

Fungi:

• Only heterotrophic
• Cell Walls made of Chitin
• Contain tissue
• Many nuclei possible per cell

Answer 2

Protista consists of single cell or simple structure eukaryotes, such as amoeba. Monera caters exclusively prokaryotic cells.

The fundamental difference between the two being Protista have a nucleus, monera do not.

Answer 3

Following is a list of the major differences between the two kingdoms. As you might already know, biologist divide all organisms into five (05) kingdoms. Protist and monera are two of those kingdoms along with Animalia, Plantae and Fungi.

Protist are unicellular organisms while monera are single celled which includes true bacteria (eubacteria) and cynobacteria (algae)

Below is a list of the major diferences:

Kingdom Protista Characteristics

• Its members are microscopic (unicellular)
• Some protists can make their own food while others cannot do so.
• Some protists can move around while others cannot do so, or very little.

Protista Classification

• Most are microscopic, one-celled organisms.
• Some form colonies of many cells
• May have qualities of both animals and plants
• Some make their own food through photosynthesis
• Many have movement

Four Phyla of Animal like Protists

Classified by how they move

• Zooflagellates - flagella
• Sarcodines - extensions of cytoplasm (pseudopodia)
• Ciliates - cilia
• Sporozoans - do not move

Kingdom Monera Characteristics

o One-celled organisms

Cells have no membrane around the nucleus

o Reproduce by splitting in two

Absorb nutrients from outside their bodies

Some monerans cause diseases, but others are helpful to people

Examples: bacteria

Answer 4

monerans don't have nucleus on their cell, unlike protists
