Plant-like protists, also known as algae, can be unicellular or multicellular. Examples include unicellular forms like diatoms and multicellular forms like giant kelp. Therefore, the number of cells in plant-like protists varies widely, ranging from a single cell to thousands of cells in larger species.
Protists only have one cell.

Plant-like protists, primarily found in the group known as algae, share several key characteristics with true plants. Both have chlorophyll and can perform photosynthesis, allowing them to convert sunlight into energy. Additionally, they possess cell walls made of cellulose, similar to many plant cells. Both groups also contribute significantly to ecosystems, particularly in aquatic environments, by serving as primary producers.
Protists are often considered "disgusting" due to their diverse and sometimes peculiar characteristics, which can include slimy textures, unusual shapes, and the presence of harmful pathogens. Animal-like protists, like amoebas, can exhibit behaviors that resemble parasites, while some plant-like protists, such as algae, can bloom excessively, resulting in harmful algal blooms. Fungus-like protists, such as slime molds, can appear decayed or mushy, further contributing to their unappealing reputation. Overall, their varied forms and functions can evoke a sense of discomfort or disgust in many people.
Protists are a diverse group of organisms that can vary greatly in cell number. Some protists are unicellular, consisting of a single cell, while others can be multicellular, composed of many cells.
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.

Protists only have one cell.
One
There are many plant-like protists, such as algae, that get their energy from sunlight through photosynthesis.
There is just one.

they are different cause to even an amateur observer of cell,many of differences between those of plants,animals,and protists are obvious.But trying to how they are similar but y'all show me the answer right you keep popping answers for me to click but i already put a answer in

protists
billions of trillions. cells are insanely tiny.
