Organisms maintain homeostasis by sweating. Kidneys, Liver, and Brain help maintain homeostasis.
Slime molds do not resemble plants, animals, or fungi.
Cellular slime molds are distinguished from plasmodial slime molds by the presence of individual, distinct cells that remain separate even during the feeding stage. In contrast, plasmodial slime molds have a multinucleate, single cell mass during feeding.
Yes, there are different types of slime molds and water molds. Slime molds, primarily classified into myxogastrids (plasmodial slime molds) and dictyostelids (cellular slime molds), exhibit unique life cycles and structural forms. Water molds, belonging to the oomycetes group, include various species that thrive in aquatic environments and can affect plant health. Each type plays distinct ecological roles and has unique characteristics.
One characteristic not seen in both water molds and slime molds is the presence of true multicellularity. Water molds (oomycetes) are primarily unicellular or form simple filaments, while slime molds can exhibit complex multicellular structures during their life cycle, such as the plasmodium stage. Additionally, water molds are classified as fungi-like protists that absorb nutrients from their environment, whereas slime molds can exhibit behaviors similar to amoebas, including movement and foraging.
Yes, slime molds release spores as part of their reproductive process. These spores are typically dispersed into the environment, allowing the slime mold to reproduce and form new colonies.

Slime molds are all cellular. The unique fact is that they may or may not be multinucleated.

Slime molds are considered to be heterotrophs. Slime molds obtain their energy by consuming soil, decaying wood, and other decaying materials.
heterotrophs
They are not.

The fruiting bodies in cellular slime molds serve as structures for spore formation and dispersal, allowing the organism to reproduce. Sporangia in cellular slime molds are specialized structures that contain spores, which are dispersed to new environments to colonize and continue the life cycle. Both structures are essential for the reproductive success of cellular slime molds.
