Animal-like protists do not make their own food, they are consumers, which are things that consume (take in) food. Plant-like protists can, because they use photosynthesis:the process in which a plant (including plant-like protists) makes its own food with sunlight.
Protists that contain chlorophyll and produce their own food through photosynthesis are known as algae. Algae can vary in size from microscopic unicellular organisms to large multicellular seaweeds. They play a crucial role in aquatic ecosystems as primary producers.
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.
The bactera kingdom, the protists kingdom, the plant kingdom, and the fungi (fungis) kingdom make their own foodRead more: Which_kingdom_has_living_things_that_make_their_own_food
Autotrphs can make there own food by photosynthesis or by absorbing it Bacteria get food from both ways, they absorb their food from the ground, Protists can do this also, along with plants A heterotroph cannot make their own food, an example is a human
Sunlight is important for photosynthesis in plants and protists, where they convert light energy into chemical energy for growth and metabolism. Without sunlight, these organisms would not be able to produce their own food and would not survive. Additionally, sunlight helps regulate important biological processes such as reproduction and development in these organisms.
They can create photosynthesis to make their own food.
Plantlike protists, which are commonly called algae, are extremely diverse. Like plants, algae are autotrophs. Most are able to use the sun's energy to make their own food.
plants and plantlike protists
Autotrophs include plants, plantlike protists, cyanobacteria, and bacteria capable of making their own food through chemosynthesis.
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.
Yes, there are some protists that can make there own food, that is, they are autotrophs. Some are heterotrophs and much consume nutrients.
False. They are plant-like protists.
yes with chloroplast
hetorotrophs that can move,but can not make their own food
Photosynthesis
Yes and no. There are producing and consuming protists; which means some will eat their food, and others will make it. There are also some protists, such as Euglena, that both prey on other protists and produce its own.
