Detailed explanation-1: -Amoeboid protozoans – Mostly found in water bodies, either fresh or saline. They have pseudopodia (false feet) which help to change their shape and to capture and engulf food. E.g. Amoeba. Flagellated protozoans – As the name suggests, the members of this group have flagella.
Detailed explanation-2: -The animal-like protists must get their food from other organisms. These are often called protozoans. They are able to move to get food.
Detailed explanation-3: -Plant-like protists (AKA algae), and fungi-like protists (i.e., molds) both have cell walls, but animal-like protists (protozoa) do not.
Detailed explanation-4: -The pseudopods are used for locomotion, anchoring, and capturing food, which consists of small organisms such as diatoms or bacteria.
