- Humans can use it as a pesticide to kill different organisms like rats.
- Humans also use the fungi to eat or use it to prepare food for preservation.

Mycorrhiza is a symbolic relationship between the roots of a plant and the fungus. This is helpful to the plants because it makes sure that the plant gets the right amount of moisture and nutrients.

A lichen is a symbiotic relationship between an alga and fungus. They are helpful to us because they can take pollutants out of the air and make oxygen for us to breathe.

- Fungi help ecosystems maintain homeostasis by breaking down dead matter, which can free up space.
- Fungi use the nutrients from the dead matter and store it in them for animals. Once the animals come along and eat the fungi the nutrients are in that animal and then the food chain goes on.
- Once the fungi decompose an organism, they release oxygen, carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus into the air which benefits others.

Fungi are made of masses of tubular filaments called hyphae that go into and absorb nutrients from the organisms and ground that the fungi grow on. Fungi are decomposers which means that they grow on dead matter and slowly decompose it for nutrients.

- Protists produce almost one-half of oxygen on Earth through photosynthesis.
- Protists can also decompose stuff to clean up the environment.
- They also recycle nutrients and play huge part in the food chain.

Flagellum is one of the three methods that a protist can move. They use it like a propeller and move themselves to different places.
Cilia is similar to the flagellum, but they are smaller and there is more than one.
Pseudopods are foot-like extensions on the cytoplasm that grabs onto objects and pulls it towards it.

Animal protists are single-cell consumers and are also known as Protozoa. They separate into four different groups: amoeba-like protists, flagellates, ciliates, and spore-forming protists.
Plant protists are called algae and can include diatoms and seaweed. Algae use photosynthesis to make their own food and types of algae can be red, green, or dinoflagellates.
Fungi protists are molds and are absorptive eaters. They resemble fungi and reproduce with spores just like fungi. They can be slime molds, water molds, etc.

Protists are simple eukaryotic organisms that are not plants, animals, or fungi. Unicellular, but can be found in groups of cells. They live in water, damp environments, and parasites. The term "Protista" comes from the Greek word "Protistos" meaning "the very first".
