How are protists different from other organisms?
They;re different because they're niether animals, plants, or fungi, and they're eukaryotes
Do protists cells have a nucleus?
Yes they do. Some protists have other organelles that other protists may be lacking but they all still have nuclei.
Why are some protists more closely related to other kingdoms than to members of their own kingdom?
Because they are more different than they are alike.
What is an example of A protist organism?
An amoeba and a Volvox are two examples of protists. The amoeba is heterotrophic (does not make its own food), and the Volvox is autotrophic (makes its own food through photosynthesis).
How does Protista get there food?
Different kinds of protists get their food in different ways. Some protists can move and can take in food like animals do. Plant-like protists need to absorb the sun's energy in order to make food inside their bodies. Other protists like fungus grow above their food source to get nutrients. Some protists engulf bacteria and digest them internally, by extending their cell membrane and forming a vacuole around the bacteria. This bacteria is then taken in by phagocytosis. Protists such as Dinoflagellates, Euglena, and Algae are Phototrophs that get their energy from sunlight. Protists like Apicomplexa, Trypanosomes, and Amobae are Organotrophs that get their energy from organic compounds.
How are protists and plant and different?
Protists are distinguished from other eukaryotes by their simplicity. Protists have much simpler cells.
What makes the phylum protista different from all other phylums?
First of all, Protista is a kingdom, not a phylum. But there are over 24 Phyla in this kingdom. What makes protists different from other kingdoms is that they are unicellular, have a nucleus in their cells, they have no cell wall,, and they can be hetertrophs or autotrophs.
What make protists different from bacteria?
internal membranes which separate different organs, also a different form for DNA, protists are bigger, and several other minor differences
Do sarcodines repoduce sexually or asexually?
(false) sexually asexually is how plants mate with each other
What is different between animal- like protists and 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.
How are protists different from other organisms?
They;re different because they're niether animals, plants, or fungi, and they're eukaryotes
Is protists abiotic or biotic?
Protists are alive, or in other words, biotic
Do protists cells have a nucleus?
Yes they do. Some protists have other organelles that other protists may be lacking but they all still have nuclei.
Why did Ernst Haeckel divide protoctists into a different kingdom?
He divided them into a different kingdom because protists are unicellular organisms that are very different from other organisms.
Why are some protists more closely related to other kingdoms than to members of their own kingdom?
Because they are more different than they are alike.
Why are protist producers?
Protists are a type of life that makes its own food- it doesn't have to rely on other animals or plants to stay alive.
What is an example of A protist organism?
An amoeba and a Volvox are two examples of protists. The amoeba is heterotrophic (does not make its own food), and the Volvox is autotrophic (makes its own food through photosynthesis).
