Protists are called plant-like, fungus-like and animal-like because they share some of the characteristics of plants, fungi and animals, even though they belong in a different category: the kingdom Protista. They are all eukaryotes (that is, they have a nucleus) and all live in moist cond...
What are animal-like protists called?A Unique Kingdom:Protists are living organisms that belong to their own kingdom based on their unique characteristics. They are eukaryotic, meaning they are made of cells that are complex and full of organelles. Many are unicellular and they are either ...
Protozoan Protists Protozoans (Gr. proto = first; zoa = animal) are the single-celled animal-like members of the kingdom Protista Protozoans can occur wherever there is moisture Free-living protozoans are found in both marine and freshwater habitats, and in moist soil ...
Like plants and animals, fungi arose from protists and are now accorded a kingdom of their own. Load Next Page

Now, there's also a trade-off between the reproductive success of an organism and its chance of survival. You know, the way I like to think of this is, if you commit too much to having one successful reproduction, you might actually be losing out when you could have had, you know, ...

and shrub-like forests provided new habitats for arthropods. The first tetrapods to appear were amphibians (e.g.Ichthyostega). The land continued to be dominated by arthropods, such as arachnids and wingless insects. However, another major mass extinction occurred. Called the late Devonian extinctio...
Protists are primarily minuscule single-celled, unicellular organisms. Either prokaryotes or eukaryotes make up all living things. Examples of prokaryotes include bacteria and archaea. Eukaryotes include animals, plants, fungi, and protozoa. A fungus is a eukaryote. Fungi were once considered to be ...
