Some live symbiotically within other organisms. Others recycle nutrients by breaking down dead organic matter. Many animallike protists live in seas and lakes, where they are eaten by tiny animals, which in turn serve as food for larger animals.

One type of protist is algae. Algae is the green scum found in ponds and also makes up seaweed. It is thought that between 70-80% of atmospheric oxygen was produced by algae...quite important little critters if you ask me :)

without them some animals and insects couldn't live because they depend on each other...thats why protists depend on the environment
they are among the "producers"
for Plato users its D all of the above

Yes
The protophyta, or algae, are the protists which play the most beneficial role for humans. They create food and respirate oxygen.

Yes
Now they are extinct and play no role in the environment.
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.

Protists play many roles in nature such as decomposers, photosynthetic producers, disease causing pathogens, mutualistic symbiotic relationships with other species, and many other roles.
Fungi is a decomposer.
The environment is the '' natural selector. ''
Some protists play important roles in ecological processes such as nutrient cycling and decomposition. For example, certain protists help break down dead organic matter and release essential nutrients back into the environment, contributing to the fertility of ecosystems. They also serve as a food source for other organisms, playing a crucial role in the food web.
