Two broad groups of slime molds are recognized. The individual cells of cellular slime molds remain distinct-- separated by cell membranes-- during every phase of the mold's life cycle. Slime molds that pass through a stage in which their cells fuse to form large cells with many nuclei are called acellular slime molds.

∙ 12y agoSlime mold is one of the most interesting protozoa. Every single cell in a slime mold is, in and of itself, a fully functioning microorganism, and each cell could thrive on its own. Yet, when many of these cells come together, they start acting like a single organism. They work together to move and find food. So the truth, is that a slime mold is multi-cellular, but it is not a single living breathing organism like a fungus.

Are slime molds a ciliate?
Both slime molds and ciliates belong to the protists group. Ciliates are single-celled and slime molds have a complex life cycle during the course of which they go through unicellular, multicellular, funguslike (form spores) and protozoanlike (amoeboid) stages.
Is fungi mulitcelluar of unicellular?
Both. There are unicellular fungi, like Saccharomyces cerevisae, the yeast used to fermentate sugars and produce beer, bread and wine. Moreover, there are multicellular fungi, like Agaricus bisporus, the Parisian mushroom, widely spread in food cravings.Unicellular fungi holds all yeasts, molds and some slime molds. Multicellular fungi holds mushrooms, toadstools, earthballs, some molds and some slime molds.
