LIFE SCIENCE

Detailed explanation-1: -All protists live in aquatic or moist environments including bodies of water, wet terrestrial areas, and inside the bodies of other organisms. Locomotion. Nearly all protists are capable of movement. The most common types of motility in protists involve the use of flagella, cilia, or pseudopods.

Detailed explanation-2: -Protists live in the water because by the water, protists get many advantages like in metabolism, reproduction and its ecology. Metabolism– Protists are primitive eukaryotes which do not have specialized organelles like RBCs. To complete its oxygen demand, they live in the low oxygen atmosphere like water.

Detailed explanation-3: -Protists are unicellular eukaryotes often found in aquatic habitats. They are attached to rocks present underwater or float on the surface. They are not able to survive in dry conditions. The aquatic habitat is favorable for their reproduction, such as binary fission.
