What is the label of fungi molds?

Fungi, which is separate from plants, animals, and bacteria are a large group of eukaryotic organisms that includes microorganisms such as yeasts and molds (British English: moulds), as well as the more familiar mushrooms. These organisms are classified as their own kingdom.Molds (or moulds) are fungi that grow in the form of multicellular filaments called hyphae.


Which protist group includes the water molds diatoms and brown algae?

Stramenopiles or Heterokonts.


Which is NOT true of the slime molds?

Slime molds are not true molds as they belong to a separate group of organisms called the Myxomycetes. They are not plants or fungi, but actually belong to the kingdom Protista. Some species of slime molds can move and exhibit a form of simple intelligence in their foraging behavior.


Which are the protist that act like fungi?

Protists that act like fungi are primarily classified as slime molds and water molds. Slime molds, such as those in the group Myxomycetes, share characteristics with fungi during their vegetative phase, forming plasmodial structures. Water molds, belonging to the Oomycetes group, resemble fungi in their filamentous structure and reproductive processes but are more closely related to algae. Both types exhibit heterotrophic feeding habits, similar to fungi.


Cellular slime molds can be distinguished from plasmodial slime molds on the basis of what?

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.
