Section One: Diversity of Protists
 Protists
 A eukaryote that is not an animal, plant, or a fungus
 Can share similar feature to animals, plants, and fungi
 Can be heterotrophs, autotrophs, or decomposers
Section Two: Animal-like Protists
 Protozoa

 Cilliates have cillia
 Cillia: short hairlike
structures that cover some
or all of the cell surface and
help the organism swim and
capture food
Section Three: Plant-like Protists
 Algae
 Photosynthetic plantlike protists
 Green, brown, and red
algae
 Have chloroplasts
Section Five: Diversity of Fungi
 Fungi
 Have cell walls made of
chitin: a tough
polysaccharide also found
in insect shells
 Have bodies made of
hyphae
 Mycelium: an
underground network of
hyphae
 Reproduce sexually or
