many protist are producers.Like plants,protist producers use the sun's energy to make food through photosyntheiso
What else can I help you with?
What is the name of the process some protists use to make their own food?
Producers-get food by photosynthesis
What process is used by some protists to ingest food particles?
The process used by some protists to actively ingest food particles is called Phagocytosis.
What process is used some protists to actively ingest food particles?
The process used by some protists to actively ingest food particles is called Phagocytosis.
Does protists make food?
Yes, there are some protists that can make there own food, that is, they are autotrophs. Some are heterotrophs and much consume nutrients.
Do Proists Make Food?
Yes and no. There are producing and consuming protists; which means some will eat their food, and others will make it. There are also some protists, such as Euglena, that both prey on other protists and produce its own.
What process is used by some protists to actively ingest food particles?
Some protists use a process called phagocytosis to actively ingest food particles. During phagocytosis, the protist surrounds the food particle with its cell membrane and forms a vesicle, called a food vacuole, to bring the food particle into the cell for digestion.
Do plantlike protists make their own food?
Yes, plantlike protists, such as algae, are capable of photosynthesis, which means they can make their own food using sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water. They contain chlorophyll like plants, enabling them to convert light energy into chemical energy for growth and survival.
Is a protists able to make food?
I believe some can and some can't.
What collects energy from the sun to make food?
Autotrophs. Producer. Plants, some protists and some bacteria.
Do protists make energy?
Yes, protists can make energy through a process called photosynthesis, in which they use sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose. Additionally, some protists can obtain energy by consuming organic matter as heterotrophs.
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 like both plants and animals?
All animal-like protists are heterotrophs (can not make their own food) and are able to move in their environment in order to find their food. Animal-like protists are all unicellular. Plant-like protists are autotrophic (make their own food like plants). Many are unicellular (single cells) but some are many cells.
