Slime molds move, and lack chitin in their cell walls. They are now classified as belonging to the Kingdom Protista (Protoctista).
Physarum polycephalum is a plasmodial slime mold. The yellow blob we notice is a huge single cell. Unlike most cells, which have only one nucleus, this cell contains millions of nuclei. Physarum plasmodia are usually 3 or 4 cm ( ½ - 1 " ) in diameter, but can get to be 30 cm (about 1 foot) or more in diameter, and 3 to 5 cm thick. This giant cell moves, but only pictures taken over several days can show its progress. Its top speed is 1 mm per hour.

What is the movement of a cell is it fast or slow?
The movement of a cell can vary depending on its size, type, and environment. Some cells, like sperm cells, can move rapidly, while others, like nerve cells, may move very slowly or not at all. Overall, cell movement can range from micrometers to millimeters per minute.
How do you improve slow twitch and fast twitch muscle fibers?
They are different type of muscle fibres (US spelling Fibers). Fast twitch are good at contracting fast but fatigue quickly. Slow twitch contract more slowly but do not fatigue as fast. In athletes, sprinters tend to have a dominance of slow twitch fibres while insurance competitors have a dominance of slow twitch.

What protists are fast moving and slow moving?
Fast-moving protists include members of the flagellates, such as Euglena and Trypanosoma, which use whip-like flagella for rapid locomotion. In contrast, slow-moving protists include amoebas, like Amoeba proteus, which move using pseudopodia through a process called amoeboid movement, and slime molds, which creep along surfaces as they feed and grow. Additionally, some ciliates, like Paramecium, can move relatively quickly using their numerous cilia, but they are generally slower than flagellates.
