Different kinds of protists get their food in different ways. Some protists can move and can take in food like animals do. Plant-like protists need to absorb the sun's energy in order to make food inside their bodies. Other protists like fungus grow above their food source to get nutrients. Some protists engulf bacteria and digest them internally, by extending their cell membrane and forming a vacuole around the bacteria. This bacteria is then taken in by phagocytosis. Protists such as Dinoflagellates, Euglena, and Algae are Phototrophs that get their energy from sunlight. Protists like Apicomplexa, Trypanosomes, and Amobae are Organotrophs that get their energy from organic compounds.
Some protista are autotrophic, some heterotrophic. AUTOTROPHS These protista make their food through photosynthesis. HETEROTROPHS A) Feed on [bacteria] through their oral grooves or endocytosis.
There food is consumed by photosynthesis
protista can actulally be either. Some can be autotrophic and some can be hetrotrophic.Protista can be autotrophic or heterotrophic. An autotroph is an organism that makes its own food. A heterotroph is an organism that relies on other resources for food, just in case you didn't know. :]
Protista are neither plants nor animals. They have characteristics of both plants and animals. They make their own food just like plants but move around like animals.

No
There food is consumed by photosynthesis
they take the food and digest it.
protista and plantae
protista good luck!
The kingdom that a single-celled eukaryotic organism that makes its own food belongs to is Protista. Organisms in this kingdom can perform photosynthesis to produce their own food.

protista
It is in the protista kingdom.
The amoebas are in the protista kingdom.
