Sexual reproduction can occur in two ways in multicellular protests. first way when two haploid gametes fuse. the second is through conjungation, which is the exchange og genetic material two individuals.-CARTEL TORRES
Three ways that protists reproduce?
Asexual reproductionSplits into nearly equal halves after mitosisSometimes daughter cell considerably smaller then grows= buddingSchizogony= cell division preceded by several nuclear divisions so that cytokinesis produces several individuals simultaneouslySexual reproductionMeiosis for production of haploid from diploid = frequent genetic recombinationComplex lifestylesSome protists have a specific lifestyle in which they reproduce through multiple forms through sexual, asexual, or cloning processes.

Protists
What are two major types of nutrition in protists?
Two major types of nutrition in protists are autotrophic and heterotrophic. Autotrophic protists can produce their own food through photosynthesis or chemosynthesis, while heterotrophic protists obtain their nutrition by consuming organic matter or other organisms.
What two groups can protists divided into?
Protozoa and Algae

All protists havee nuclei and are unicellular.
