Protists that absorb food from their environment are called fungus-like protists. These protists take in nutrients from the soil or other organisms and break down materials to gain energy. They are reffered to as decomposers.

An example of a fungus-like protist is water mold, which forms a fuzzy growth on food. This food can be dead animal or plant tissue or living organisms.Water molds live mainly in fresh water.

Plant-like protisa contain the pigment chlorophyll in chloroplasts and can make their own food, just like plants. Some of them have cell walls and some of them have structures that can hold them in place just like roots. These are known as algae. They are both unicellular and multi cellular and not all of them are green, like other plants.

The protista kingdom is from the Eukarya domain. It is mostly unicellular, but some are multi. The protista kingdom is like a junk drawer, all of these organisms didn't fit in any other domains.

These animal-like protists are classified on how they move. They can either be one celled or multi celled. They live in or on other organisms, but can also live in water or soil. They have specialized vacuoles for digesting food or getting rid of extra water.

An example of a plant-like protist is a Diatom. These organisms live in fresh and saltwater environments with golden or brown pigments. They secrete glass like boxes and when they die, the boxes sink.

This kingdom is the most diverse and usually referred to as a "junk drawer". They span from single to multi celled organisms. There is a shift, almost, is unicellular and multicellular organisms. The multi celled protists live with other organisms as the single celled live by themselves. There is a theory that the protista kingdom is the ancestors of multicellular life.

Protists are usually divided into three groups: Animal-like, Plant-like, and Fungi-like. This charting is based on which characteristics they share with kingdom animalia, plantae, and fungi

An example of a animal-like protist is an amoeba. Amoeba have very flexible cells and slither along surfaces. When it encounters food, it spreads out and wraps around its food.
