Protista have characteristics of both plants and animals. Most protista are unicellular and can only be seen with a microscope, but some are composed of more than one cell. They inhabit many environments-fresh water, seawater, soils, and the intestinal tracts of animals. Many species make their own food by photosynthesis like plants, but can move around under their own power like animals. Some protista are single-celled organisms propelled by numerous tiny, hair-like projections called cilia. Cilia also bring food particles into a small depression in their body surface through which food is ingested. Others move by means of flagella, long whiplike structures that the protists beat to propel themselves through water like spinning propeller. Amoebas and slime molds are protista that use pseudopodia for movement and to engulf prey. All protists have a nucleus, some contain multiple nuclei-up to ten thousand in one cell-and others have two different-sized nuclei in a single cell. The DNA of protists is in chromosomes within the nucleus. Protists reproduce by mitosis. In some protists the thin membrane around the nucleus survives mitosis, whereas in plants, animals, and fungi this nuclear membrane disintegrates.
