Fungus and protists help us in many ways. Fungus and protists are used in food to make it tasty. Example of a fungus used in food is yeast (makes your bread rise). Medicine for example Penicillin comes from a mold of Penicillium. They affect our ecosystems and are used for industrial purposes.
No, brown algae are not fungus-like protists. Brown algae are a type of multicellular, photosynthetic algae that belong to the kingdom Chromista, while fungus-like protists are organisms that display characteristics of both fungi and protists, and belong to the kingdom Protista.
it can be food :D
Animal-Like Plant-like fungus-like
All fungus protists are able to produce spores at some point in their lives. Spores serve as a means of reproduction and dispersal for these organisms.
You would most likely find fungus-like protists in damp environments such as soil, decaying matter, and on the surfaces of plants. These protists thrive in moist conditions where they can obtain nutrients and reproduce.
In my research throught out the web and text books, there are a few fungus like protists that are unicellular. Thank you!
No, it is a genus of protists.
Fungus-like protists move, that is the biggest difference. Both of them are heterotrophs, eukaryotic, and both use spores to reproduce.
Myxomycota and Oomycota
No, brown algae are not fungus-like protists. Brown algae are a type of multicellular, photosynthetic algae that belong to the kingdom Chromista, while fungus-like protists are organisms that display characteristics of both fungi and protists, and belong to the kingdom Protista.
Fungus
yes photosynthesis
They live on Scott Stancil
animal, plant, fungus
It is a bacteria.
Algae and cyanobacteria are the protists that form symbiotic relationships with fungi in lichens. These photosynthetic organisms provide nutrients to the fungi, while the fungi offer protection and structure to the protists, leading to a mutually beneficial relationship within the lichen structure.
The three main types of protists are protozoa (animal-like protists), algae (plant-like protists), and slime molds (fungus-like protists). Each type of protist has unique characteristics and plays a different ecological role in various environments.
