Which is not one of the major phyla of animal like protists?

The major phyla of animal-like protists are Sarcomastigophora, Ciliophora, Apicomplexa, and Zoomastigophora. One phylum that is not part of the animal-like protists is the Euglenozoa, which is a group of flagellated protozoans that are primarily photosynthetic rather than animal-like in nature.


Are protists smaller than bacteria?

Some protists are larger than bacteria, while others may be smaller. Protists are typically unicellular organisms but can also form colonies or be multicellular, whereas bacteria are unicellular prokaryotic organisms. The size of protists and bacteria can vary greatly depending on the specific species.


Are protist biger than bacteria?

Yes, protists are generally larger than bacteria. Bacteria are microscopic single-celled organisms, while protists can vary in size from microscopic single-celled organisms to larger multicellular organisms.


What are three characteristics of fungus-like protests that make them similar to fungi?

Fungus-like protists have filamentous structures that resemble fungal hyphae. Both groups obtain nutrients through absorption rather than photosynthesis. They can reproduce through the formation of spores.


How are protists like both plants and animals?

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.
