Well if it is an animal protist then i would say no, because chlorophyll is only found in plant cells. But if by animal-like you mean characteristics of both an animal and plant, i think you would have to find the specific protist and study it further.


What characteristic would you use to place a protist with a cell wall in to either the plantlike or funguslike protists?

You would place a protist with a cell wall in the plantlike group, as most plantlike protists, such as algae, have cell walls made of cellulose. Funguslike protists, such as slime molds, do not typically have cell walls composed of cellulose.
