Why are fungus like protists not members of the kingdom fungi?
plants contain cellulose in their cell wall while fungi contains chitin as a major component of its cell wall.Besides fungi are absorptive heterotrophs while plants are photosynthetic autotrophs.fungi lacks centrioles and contains chitin in its cell wall(as described earlier) but certain protists have centrioles and produce cellulose in their cell wall.some protists also contain some pigments like Chl.a Chl.b caroteins etc while fungi does not.Due to these reasons Fungi has separate kingdom.
Is eukarya autotrophic or heterotrophic?
Eukarya refers to all organisms whose cells have a nucleus. This means that they include fungi (which are heterotrophs), animals (which are heterotrophs), plants (which are autotrophs), and protists (some of which are heterotrophs, some autotrophs).
How are funguslike protist similar to fungi?
Like fungi funguslike protists are heterotrophs have cell walls, and use spores to reproduce.
What stops scientists from classyfying plant like protists as plants?
dont
Are protista heterotrophs or autotrophs?
Both. Rhodophyta is an autotroph while an amoebae is an heterotroph.
The three classifications of protists include?
heterotrophs,producers, and decompose
Are animal-like protist producers?
No, I believe not. There are protists that are producers (autotrophs). This branch of protists are called Algae. However, the branch that you are talking about is Protozoans, and they are heterotrophic, so they need to take food in from the environment. So no, heterotrophs are not producers, so animal-like protists are not producers.
Which group of organisms includes only multicellular heterotrophs?
Protists
Are protists hetertrophs?
Yes they are. Protists can be Parameciums and Ameboas and they are heterotrophs.
Is protists heteroph or autoph?
heterotrophs
Are protists autotrophic heterotrophic or both?
heterotrophs
How are animal-like protists categorized?
Protists that have animal-like characteristics are categorized as protozoans. The protozoan group is further subdivided by the way in which the protozoans move. The categories include sacordinians which move using pseudopod, zooflagellates which move using flagella, ciliaphorans which move using cilia, and sporozoans which form spores.
How do protists producers differ from plant producers?
Protists don't have specialized tissues
What classification of protists would include paramecia?
It is heterotrophs.
Are protists heterotrophs?
yes all protists are heterotroph.. some though also are something aside from heterotroph, for example sarcodina are not only heterotrophs but alsp phagasites
How animal like protists similar to animals?
They are both heterotrophs.
Animal-like protists eat other organisms so they are?
Heterotrophs
