It is animal like because... It gains energy from other sources instead of making its own food. An amoeba cannot perform photosynthesis. It engulfs food and stores it in a place called the “food vacuole”.
facts:
- the amoeba 🦠 is a living thing.
- it is an animal like others, but it is small micro sized.
- it contains a nucleus.
other things inside of the amoeba:
- pseudopod
- food vacuole
- membrane
- endoplasm
- ectoplasm
- contractile vacuole

It is plant-like, because it produces the same organisms as plants. It is animal-like because it is a living thing, it’s just a micro sized animal. It is fungus-like because it attaches to fungus and produces food and energy for fungus. An amoeba 🦠 is all types of stuff. You just have to find the right information.

∙ 10y agoThe amoeba is an animal-like protist and single-celled organism, due to the following reasons:
- Heterotroph (Gains food/energy from other sources instead of making its own)
- Does not perform photosynthesis
- Engulfs food through usage of pseudopods (literally meaning "false foot") in order to gain energy
- Stores food in a "food vacuole" (usually only found in the cells of animal-like organisms)

∙ 12y agoPROTISTS can be animal-like plant-like and fungus-like. i know this becaus i just took a test on protists and fungi!!
:)

It’s both. It’s animal-like because it is a living thing, it’s just micro sized. It’s also plant-like because it can and does produce the same organisms as plants.

It is all of them. *answer above*

What animal kingdom are fungi animal and plants all in?
No, Fungi is a kingdom by itself in the domain Eukarya. They are nothing like plants because they are heterotrophic whereas plants are autotrophic plus plants produce with seeds while fungi reproduce using spores
Is ciliates plant like or animal like?
protozoans that move through their aquatic habitats by the beating of cilia in coordinated waves; paramecia are ciliates. Ciliates reproduce asexually by binary fission and sexually by conjugation They move by cilias and are animal-like protists Habitat: aquatic enviroments. Has a micro and macro nucleus Micro-reproduction Macro-multiple genomes control the everyday functions Unicellular

Are dinoflagellates plant-like animal-like or fungus-like?
It has plant characteristics.
What organisms are animal like plant like or fungus like?
Eukaryotes
Are the categories animal like plant like or fungus like useful in classifying protists?
No, because protist is any organism that is not a plant, animal, a fungus, or a prokaryote. Protists are eukaryotes that aren't members of the kingdoms plantae, anamalia, or fungi.
What are the 3 protists?
Animal like Protist, Fungus like Protist, and Plant like Protist

Animal-Like Plant-like fungus-like
What is an organism that is not a prokaryotic a plant an animal or a fungus?
Protist
Are protists easy to classify?
Somewhat, there are three groups: Plant-like, Animal-like, and fungus-like. Protists are basically the leftovers.
What are microscopic living cells?
Microscopic living cells are called Protists. They are divided into three categories: animal like (or protozoan), plant like (algae), and fungus like. Protists have a wide species range because they are pretty much just organisms that don't fit into the classification of animal, plant, or fungus.
