Slime molds are said to be like animals during much of there life cycle because they?
Move. And eat.
Slime molds water molds and downy mildew's are examples of what Protists?
Slime molds and water moldsThe fungus -like protists resemble the fungi during some part of their life cycle. These organisms exhibit properties of both fungi and protists. The slime molds and the water molds are members of this group. They all obtain energy by decomposing organic materials, and as a result, are important for recycling nutrients. They can be brightly colored and live in cool, moist, dark habitats. The slime molds are classified as either plasmodial or cellular by their modes of reproduction. The plasmodial slime molds belong to the phylum Myxomycota, and the cellular slime molds belong to the phylum Acrasiomycota.The plasmodial slime molds form a structure called a plasmodium, a mass of cytoplasm that contains many nuclei but has no cell walls or membranes to separate individual cells. The plasmodium is the feeding stage of the slime mold. It moves much like an amoeba, slowly sneaking along decaying organic material. It moves at a rate of 1 in (2.5 cm) per hour, engulfing microorganisms. The reproductive structure of plasmodial slime molds occurs when the plasmodium forms a stalked structure during unfavorable conditions. This structure produces spores that can be released and travel large distances. The spores land and produce a zygote that grows into a new plasmodium.The cellular slime molds exist as individual cells during the feeding stage. These cells can move like an amoeba as well, engulfing food along the way. The feeding cells reproduce asexually through cell division. When conditions become unfavorable, the cells come together to form a large mass of cells resembling a plasmodium. This mass of cells can move as one organism and looks much like a garden slug. The mass eventually develops into a stalked structure capable of sexual reproduction.The water molds and downy mildews belong to the phylum Oomycota. They grow on the surface of dead organisms or plants, decomposing the organic material and absorbing nutrients. Most live in water or in moist areas. Water molds grow as a mass of fuzzy white threads on dead material. The difference between these organisms and true fungi is the water molds form flagellated reproductive cells during their life cycles.Read more: Protista - Slime Molds And Water Molds http://science.jrank.org/pages/5547/Protista-Slime-molds-water-molds.html#ixzz0d6EfuAiF
What are the helpful bacterias?

What do some molds produce?

Where is metal formed and moulded?
A foundry is where metal is melted and poured into molds.
What metal is melted and poured into molds to make stoarge batteries?
I like boys!
What is called a metal that is poured into molds to make bars?
The bar of metal thus formed is called an ingot.
A process in which metal is melted and poured in to molds made of sand or metal or other heat proof materials?
It is called "Casting"
How is metal shaped?
There are many different ways to shape metal. It can be bent, rolled, extruded, punched, welded, or melted and poured into molds.
What is the second most common use for industrial sand?
Molding or foundry sand is traditionally the second most common use (20 percent in 2003) of industrial sand. Sand is used in these applications to make molds into which molten metal is poured in metal casting
Why are pentdents made from pewter?
pewter is a good metal to make a pendent with as it is an alloy metal (a metal made up from other metals) so it will have the different properties. its is easily melted and can be poured into molds of whatever the artist makes, so its much easier to play with than say silver or nickel.
How to introduce molten metal into molds?
The molds should be sand coated insides and a hole upside mold then introduce the molten metal.
How lead shot its made?
The lead is heated to a liquid state and poured into molds of differing sizes.
Is there a machine that converts metal into a liquid?
Its not exactly a machine but "ovens" convert a solid metal to its liquid form. I'm not talking about house ovens. These are ovens found in steel and Aluminum factories. They get very hot and melt the metal. The molten metal is then poured into molds (to make different shapes) and allowed to cool back to the solid form.
Is candle mold made of metal or plastic for the candle?
Most Candle Molds are made from aluminum. But there are a lot of molds that are made of silicone too.
What is foundry pattern making?
Making the shapes that form the molds that you pour metal into.
