Why protists that obtain food by photosynthesis are so important for other organisms?
hashmire did it
Organisms that obtain nutrients by breaking down dead and decaying plants and animals are called?
Organisms that break down wastes an dead organisms and return the raw material to the environment are called decomposers.
How are unicellular protists and multicellular protists similar?
Most fungi consist of cells that are relatively unspecialized. Like unicellular protists, the cells of a fungus resemble each other and obtain their own nutrients directly from the environment.
Is a animal cell a saprotroph or heterotroph or autotroph?
Animals are heterotrophic organisms. They obtain carbon from other animals.
Organisms that obtain food by feeding on other dead or decaying organisms?
Saprophytes.

Obtain their food from dead matter?
Fungus-like protists obtain their food from dead matter. Protists are eukaryotic microorganisms.
How do unicellular get oxygen?
Unicellular protists, also known as micro-organisms, need oxygen to survive. They obtain oxygen by diffusing it across the cell membrane into the cell.
How are organisms placed into different kingdoms?
Organisms are placed into different kingdoms based on their cellular structures, modes of nutrition, and other defining characteristics. Taxonomists use a set of criteria, such as cell type, method of obtaining nutrition, and reproductive strategies, to classify organisms into distinct kingdoms such as Animalia, Plantae, Fungi, Protista, and Monera. Each kingdom represents a broad group of organisms that share similar characteristics.
How does plant protists obtain their food?
photosynthesis
How do scientists use source of energy to classify organisms into their kingdoms?
Scientists classify organisms into different kingdoms based on their source of energy through their mode of nutrition. Organisms that obtain energy from the sun through photosynthesis belong to the kingdom Plantae, while those that obtain energy from consuming other organisms belong to the kingdom Animalia. Organisms that obtain energy from breaking down organic matter or inorganic compounds belong to the kingdom Fungi or Kingdom Protista, depending on other characteristics.
Organisms that obtain nutrients by breaking down dead and decaying plants and animals are called?
Organisms that break down wastes an dead organisms and return the raw material to the environment are called decomposers.
Organisms that obtain their food from other organisms?
Consumers
Are organisms that obtain energy from other organisms?
Animals.
Name two ways protists get food?
1) producers- get food by photosynthesis 2) heterotrophs- gets food by eating other organism or byproducts 3) parasite- an organism that its off another species (the host) 4) host- another organism from which the parasite takes food and shelter
