yes.

Protists are single celled organisms which include both animal-like cells and also plant-like cells. The plants are the reason such an ecosystem can sustain itself. The plants manufacture food and the animals either eat the plants or recycle dead cells.

Any closed container demonstrates this, since the water will become green and stay that way for as long as the jar remains undisturbed. This theoretically can be thousands of years.

After this time, the organisms may have evolved species found nowhere else on earth, except for inside the jar. They will be perfectly adapted to jar existence and could probably live nowhere else. This is principally how species in the real world become extinct. Someone or something breaks their jar.

Do protoctists have a nucleus?

Yes, most protists have a nucleus. Protists are eukaryotic organisms, meaning they have a defined nucleus that contains their genetic material. However, there are some protists that lack a true nucleus and are considered primitive.

How does the protists kingdom effect the environment?

Protists play various roles in the environment, such as being important components of the food chain in aquatic ecosystems, serving as primary producers through photosynthesis, and acting as decomposers that break down organic matter. Some protists also form symbiotic relationships with other organisms, influencing nutrient cycling and ecosystem dynamics. However, certain protists can also cause harmful algal blooms or diseases in humans, animals, and plants, impacting ecosystem health.


Do bacteria decompose protists?

NO bacteria don't decompose protists instead they both are kept in different domain because protists have membrane-bounded nucleus, which bacterial cells lack.


Are there protists in the Alaskan tundra?

Yes, there are protists in the Alaskan tundra. Protists are a diverse group of eukaryotic microorganisms that can thrive in extreme environments like the tundra due to their adaptability and resilience. They play important roles in nutrient cycling, food webs, and overall ecosystem function in tundra ecosystems.
