Detailed explanation-1: -Are all Protists unicellular? No, not all Protists are unicellular. Protists such as moulds and algae are multicellular, i.e., they are made up of more than one cell. Amoeba, paramecium and euglena are unicellular organisms belonging to kingdom Protista.

Detailed explanation-2: -Examples of protists include various unicellular red algae, such as Cyanidioschyzon merolae; unicelluar green algae, such as Chlamydomonas reinhardtii; and marine diatoms, such as Thalassiosira pseudonana.

Detailed explanation-3: -Which Types of Protists Are Unicellular? All animal-like protists (protozoa) are unicellular. This includes the Rhizopoda, the ciliates, the flagellates, and the Sporozoa). Many plant-like protists (algae) and fungi-like protists (molds) are also unicellular organisms.

Detailed explanation-4: -Kingdom Protista Protists can look very different from each other. Some are tiny and unicellular, like an amoeba, and some are large and multicellular, like seaweed. However, multicellular protists do n ot have highly specialized tissues or organs.

Detailed explanation-5: -Protists are eukaryotic organisms belonging to the Kingdom Protista. Protists are highly diverse and do not have much in common with one another. They are grouped together because they don’t fit into any other kingdom; put simply, protists are all the eukaryotes that are not animals, plants, or fungi.
