Rotifers are not classified as protists because they belong to the kingdom Animalia, specifically within the phylum Rotifera. Unlike protists, which are primarily unicellular organisms, rotifers are multicellular and exhibit more complex organization, including specialized tissues and systems. Additionally, rotifers have a more complex life cycle and reproductive strategies than typical protists, further distinguishing them within the broader classification of living organisms.
Rotifers are smaller than protist but nevertheless are multicellular and have speicalized organ systems.
The toe structure on a rotifer helps it anchor to surfaces, allowing the rotifer to move effectively and feed on algae and microorganisms in its environment. This structure also aids in maintaining the rotifer's position while feeding and avoids drifting away with water currents.
