Fungi can be further classified based on a number of characteristics. These include the size and shape of spores or fruiting structures, biochemical and physiological traits, and reproductive structures.
Algae-plant like Fungi- slime mole and water mold Protozoa-1st animal like .... Classified by means of locomotion!
The eukaryotic unicellular organism could belong to either the Protista or Fungi kingdom. Further classification would require additional characteristics to distinguish between the two kingdoms.
plant and fungi
Plants and fungi are very different organisms in the world. These two organisms do however share the fact that they always have a cell wall.
True fungi are placed in the Kingdom Fungi, which is divded up into a few phyla: Dikaryomycota, Glomeromycota, Zygomycota, Blastocladiomycota, Neocallimastigomycota, and Chytridiomycota. The phylum Dikariomycota is divided up into two subphyla, the Ascomycotina and the Basidiomycotina. All the phyla have further divisions, which are in flux as our understanding of evolutionary relationships, and thus taxonomy, increases.
Those are two of many characteristics that distinguish fungi from bacteria.

To distinguish between two things is the same as ppointing out the differences between two things.

Ferns and fungi are two plants that produce spores.
Bacteria are classified into two kingdoms: Bacteria (also known as Eubacteria) and Archaea. These two kingdoms are separate from the domain of Eukarya, which includes all other forms of life such as plants and animals.

Definitionally speaking, if something is a plant, it cannot have a fungal component since fungi are not plants. However, a lichen is often considered by laymen to be a plant (even though it is actually a symbiotic relationship of two or more organisms). A lichen is the most common example of algae and fungi working together.
