Title: KEY CONCEPT Kingdom Protista is the most diverse of all the kingdoms.


1
KEY CONCEPT Kingdom Protista is the most diverse
of all the kingdoms.
2
Protists can be animal-like, plantlike, or
funguslike.
  • Protists are eukaryotes that are not animals,
    plants, or fungi.

3
  • Animal-like protists consume other organisms.
  • heterotrophs
  • single-celled

4
  • Plantlike protists are photosynthetic.
  • single-celled, colonial, or multicellular
  • no roots, stems, or leaves

5
  • Funguslike protists decompose dead organisms.
  • heterotrophs
  • can move, whereas fungi cannot

6
Protists are difficult to classify.
  • Protista is one kingdom in the domain Eukarya.

7
  • Protist classification will likely change.
  • Some protists are not closely related.
  • Molecular evidence supports reclassification.
