Have you ever wondered what to call
those organisms that don’t quite fit into
any of the obvious groups? Some life
forms aren’t animals, aren’t plants, and
aren’t fungi (fuhn-guy)…so what are they?
<Image>
Eukaryotic (you-care-ee-yaw-tick)
organisms that cannot be classified as
animals, plants, or fungi are in the
Kingdom Protista (pro-tiss-tuh).

Protists (proh-tists) can be single-celled or
simple multicellular organisms with
specific internal structures.
Their modes of nutrition can be either
heterotrophic (het-er-oh-troe-fick) or
photosynthetic.(foe-toe-sin-theh-tick)

Some protists have distinguishing features
such as the use of pseudopodia (soo-doepaw-dee-uh) or “False Feet” for
movement.

Protists are found where there is moisture.
Many live in rivers, streams, oceans, and
soil that is damp.

Protists have various means of
movement.
Amoebas (uh-mee-buhs) move by the use
of pseudopodia which are simply
extensions of the cytoplasm (sie-toe-plazuhm).
They are able to capture food this way
too.

Because they conduct photosynthesis,
they produce a lot of the world’s oxygen.

can be autotrophic and heterotrophic.
