Plant-like protists are autotrophs. This means that they produce their own food. They perform photosynthesis to produce sugar by using carbon dioxide and water, and the energy from sunlight, just like plants. Unlike plants, however, plant-like protists do not have true stems, roots, or leaves.
they are different cause to even an amateur observer of cell,many of differences between those of plants,animals,and protists are obvious.But trying to how they are similar but y'all show me the answer right you keep popping answers for me to click but i already put a answer in
Protists and plants are classified in different domains: protists in the domain Eukaryota and plants in the domain Archaeplastida. Protists are a diverse group of eukaryotic organisms that do not fit strictly within the plant kingdom. Plants, on the other hand, have distinct characteristics such as cellulose cell walls and chlorophyll for photosynthesis that differentiate them from protists.
Plant-like protists, such as algae, share similarities with plants because they can perform photosynthesis to produce their own food using sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide. They also have cell walls made of cellulose, similar to plants. However, plant-like protists are not classified as plants because they lack specialized tissues found in true plants.
All animal-like protists are heterotrophs (can not make their own food) and are able to move in their environment in order to find their food. Animal-like protists are all unicellular. Plant-like protists are autotrophic (make their own food like plants). Many are unicellular (single cells) but some are many cells.
One way protists differ from plants and animals is that they are typically single-celled organisms, whereas plants and animals are mostly multi-cellular. Additionally, protists exhibit a wider range of structural and functional diversity compared to plants and animals.
They are Eukaryotes
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.
They can create photosynthesis to make their own food.
they trap the suns energy and produce sugars

Plant-like protists are similar to plants in that they can perform photosynthesis and contain chlorophyll. They can also produce their own food using sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide. However, plant-like protists are unicellular or simple multicellular organisms, whereas plants are typically more complex multicellular organisms with roots, stems, and leaves.
protists are unicellular
Fungi are not plants mainly because they are heterotrophic and lack the capacity to perform photosynthesis. Fungi are more closely related to animals than plants and most protists. (The term protist has no phylogenetic meaning anymore. That is, "protists" are not all related to one another. There are some prostists that group with fungi in the most recent eukaryotic tree of life. However, more research needs to be done to discover the synapomorphies, or shared, derived traits, between fungi and these protists.) They are more similar to protists in that many protists are also heterotrophic. However, most protists use the DAP pathway to synthesize lysine while fungi use the AAA pathway. Protists use a variety of compounds to store energy. Plants use starch and starch-like compounds. Fungi and animals use glycogen. The cisternae of the mitochondria of many protists are tubular, while animals and fungi have plate-like cisternae.
Diatoms, dinoflagellates, and other plantlike protists are similar to plants in that they photosynthesize, have chloroplasts, and are primary producers in aquatic ecosystems. They also play a crucial role in the carbon and oxygen cycles, contributing to the overall health of the environment.
