What are true statements of the kingdom Protista?

Protists are eukaryotic organisms that do not fit into the plant, animal, or fungal kingdoms. They exhibit a wide range of diversity in terms of size, shape, and habitat. Many protists are unicellular, but there are also multicellular protists like algae.


Why is it easier to define protists by what they are not rather than by what they are?

It is easier to define protists by what they are not because they are a diverse group of eukaryotic organisms that do not fit neatly into other categories like plants, animals, or fungi. They exhibit a wide range of characteristics and behaviors, making it challenging to find a single defining trait that applies to all protists. Defining them by what they are not allows for a broader understanding of their unique features.


What characteristic would you use to place a protist with a cell wall in to either the plantlike or funguslike protists?

You would place a protist with a cell wall in the plantlike group, as most plantlike protists, such as algae, have cell walls made of cellulose. Funguslike protists, such as slime molds, do not typically have cell walls composed of cellulose.


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).
