Protists and plants are similar because there euckaryotic.But they are different beacuse The best way to tell the difference between plants and plant-like protists is that plant cells are part of a bigger structure, whereas plant-like protists are always unicellular.

Animal-like protists are even more different- for example, they are heterotrophs, so they can't make their food and don't have chloroplasts.

Is a fungi considered a plant or an animal?

There are three domains of life, Prokarya, Eukarya and Archaea. Plants, animals and fungi all fall under Eukarya (Cells with nuclear envelopes and membranes). Bacteria are prokaryotic, and do not have a nucleus or nuclear membrane. Fungi are more closely related to animals than they are to plants (despite physical appearances). Fungi and Animals both evolved from a choanoflagellate ancestor (a protist), while plants evolved from another eukaryotic protist lineage (the green algae lineage). Fungi are neither plants, nor animals, but they are more closely related to animals than plants. They form their own kingdom, under the domain Eukarya.


Why do you study protists?

Protists are a fairly recent classification for organisms that are not plants, animals or fungi. It can be considered the "junk drawer" of living things. Protists are very interesting, because they are almost like the things they are similar to, but not quite. Amobea, a protozoan or animal-like protist, share many characteristics with animals but are not animals because they are unicellular (one-celled).
