Protists are different from any other organisms found in the animal or bacteria kingdom. For this reason, they are seen as heterotrophic or autotrophic by biologists and botanists.
No, fungus is not a type of plant. Fungi are a separate kingdom of organisms that are distinct from plants, animals, and bacteria. Fungi are more closely related to animals than plants.
Because they are more different than they are alike.
fungi & animals
Arche bacteria are much closer to eukaryotes.Bacteria also have some similarities. NO. Archaea, Bacteria and Eukaryota. Bacteria are more closely related to the more complex organisms (Eukaryotes). Archaea are now considered in their own domain. The Archaea in plankton are the most abundant organism on the planet.
The statement "Protists are a diverse group of eukaryotic organisms that do not fit neatly into the plant, animal, or fungi kingdoms" is consistent with the idea that protists are paraphyletic. This is because protists traditionally grouped together organisms that are not closely related in terms of evolutionary history.
Choanoflagellates are the group of protists most closely related to animals, including humans. Choanoflagellates are known for their distinctive cell morphology.
Some protists are more closely related to plants, animals, or fungi than they are to other protist and it is polyphyltic
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.
Chimpanzees and bonobos are the animals most closely related to humans, sharing about 98 of our DNA.
Great apes, such as chimpanzees, bonobos, gorillas, and orangutans, are the animals most closely related to humans.

Humans are closely related to primates such as chimpanzees, gorillas, and orangutans.
