Well to be completely honest, its either
a. The represent a form of cell reproduction which must have evolved completely separately from those of other organisms.
b. The demonstrate that these species are not closely related to any of the other Protists and may well be from a different Kingdom.
c. they rely on totally different proteins for the processes they undergo.
d. They may be more closely related to plant forms that also have unusual mitosis.
e. They show some of the evolutionary steps toward complete mitosis but not all.
The most probable hypothesis is that intermediate mitotic organization in protists represents an evolutionary stepping stone between simple cell division processes seen in prokaryotes and the more complex mitotic division seen in multicellular organisms. These intermediate forms likely reflect adaptations that allowed protists to better regulate cell division while still maintaining efficiency.
Lynn Margulis proposed the endosymbiotic theory, suggesting that organelles such as mitochondria and chloroplasts in eukaryotic cells evolved from symbiotic relationships between different types of prokaryotic cells. This hypothesis explains the origins of protists and other eukaryotic organisms through the merging of different cell types rather than gradual evolution from a single organism.
Animal-like protists are autotrophic, while plant-like protists are heterotrophic.
Most protists reproduce asexually through cell division, such as binary fission where the cell splits into two identical daughter cells. Some protists can also reproduce sexually through processes like conjugation, where genetic material is exchanged between two individuals.
No, There is no division of Labour among the cells of a colony.

Cell division, as they are unicellular organisms.
Multi-cellular animals also called metazoans came from protists which were colonilized. These colonies of protists formed hollow spheres. These protists which were linked together into a hollow sphere may have had some form of specialization to then make tissue.
No, fungi and protists do not typically have centrioles in their cells. Centrioles are more commonly found in animal cells and are involved in organizing the microtubules during cell division. Fungi and protists use alternative mechanisms for organizing their cytoskeleton during cell division.
Cell division is a form of reproduction for unicellular organisms, such as bacteria, archaea, and protists. In these organisms, a single cell divides to create offspring.
