BY: MS. JOHNSON

 WHAT IS A PROTIST?
A SINGLE- CELLED ORGANISM

WHAT IS A FUNGUS?
A SPORE- PRODUCING ORGANISM THAT FEEDS ON ORGANIC MATTER
BREAK DOWN DEAD ORGANIC MATTER AND CONTINUES CYCLING NUTRIENTS
CAN CAUSE ANIMAL AND PLANT DISEASES

CHARACTERISTICS OF PROTISTS
SINGLE-CELLED AND MULTI-CELLAR ORGANISMS
EUKARYOTIC CELLS WITH A NUCLEUS
HETEROTROPHS AND AUTOTROPHS
USES SUNLIGHT FOR FOOD LIKE PLANTS
CONSUMES OTHER ORGANISM LIKE ANIMALS

CHARACTERISTICS OF FUNGI
MULTI-CELLAR ORGANISMS
EUKARYOTIC CELLS WITH A NUCLEUS
ABSORBS NUTRIENTS FROM OTHER ORGANISMS
DOES NOT MOVE TO GET FOOD
