bacteria
Viruses are the smallest microbes known that cause disease. They are sub-microscopic. This means that they can not be seen with a regular microscope because they are too small (measured in nanometers). It takes an electron microscope to see a virus particle. The second microbe that is among the smallest would be bacteria and then probably protists, as a generalization, after that (protists and bacteria have wider ranges of sizes than viruses). Bacteria are microscopic living organisms, while the viruses are non-living sub-microscopic organisms. Protists are single-celled living organisms, such as protozoa.
FAMILYSpecies is the smallest group of classification.From largest to smallest, the seven classification are:KingdomPhylumClassOrderFamilyGenusSpecies
Animal-like protists are autotrophic, while plant-like protists are heterotrophic.
There are many ways in which protists are more advanced than bacteria. Protists possess a nucleus. Protists can also be unicellular or multicellular while bacteria is only unicellular.
Multicellular protists are grouped with unicellular protists because multicellular protists are very similar to unicellular protists. A protist is any organism that is not a plant, an animal, a fungus, or a prokaryote.

what are protists made of
Amoeba are Protists.
Animal-like protists are autotrophic, while plant-like protists are heterotrophic.
Animal-like protists are autotrophic, while plant-like protists are heterotrophic.
protists live in water
Protists are alive, or in other words, biotic
No, protists are eukaryotes.
No, most protists are unicellular organisms. Some protists can form colonies or be multicellular, but the majority are single-celled.
Most protists are unicellular. Protists such as algae and slime molds can be either multicellular or unicellular.
Protists are distinguished from other eukaryotes by their simplicity. Protists have much simpler cells.
