Most of the members of the Protist Kingdom are unicellular, however, there are a few species that, though simple, their structure and composition is multicellular, such as some species of algae, like the seaweed or 'kelp'.

Are protists mostly multicellular?

No, most protists are unicellular organisms. Some protists can form colonies or be multicellular, but the majority are single-celled.


Are all protists unicellullar?

No, not all protists are unicellular. Some protists can be multicellular, such as certain seaweeds and algae.


Is a protista unicellular or multicellular?

Protists can be either unicellular or multicellular. Some protists, such as Euglena and Amoeba, are unicellular, meaning they are composed of a single cell. Other protists, like seaweed and kelp, are multicellular, meaning they are made up of multiple cells working together.


Are ciliates unicellular or multi cellular?

Protists include unicellular, colonial and multicellular organisms Most protists are unicellular although (only one group) can be multicellular. There are types of algae, green algae known as Ulva, that are multicellular protists. They begin as colonies of unicellular protists known as Volvax, but the ones that break away are the multicellular version. The multicellular protists are without any specialized tissues. Protists used to be considered soley unicellular. Now that the molecular information has been redifined, protists are both unicellular and multicellular. .


Which of the following best describes a characteristic that distinguishes animals from protists?

Animals are multicellular, heterotrophic organisms with specialized tissues and organs for different functions, while protists are mostly unicellular or simple multicellular, with a wide range of nutritional modes including autotrophic and heterotrophic.

Multicellular protists are grouped with unicellular protists because multicellular protists are very similar to unicellular protists. A protist is any organism that is not a plant, an animal, a fungus, or a prokaryote.
