Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Protists are simple eukaryotic organisms that are neither plants nor animals or fungi. Protists are unicellular in nature but can also be found as a colony of cells. Most protists live in water, damp terrestrial environments or even as parasites.

Detailed explanation-2: -Protists are a group of organisms defined as being eukaryotic but not animals, plants, or fungi; this group includes protozoa, slime molds, and some algae. Protists and fungi are usually unicellular, while animals and plants are multicellular.

Detailed explanation-3: -The Protista is a large complex grouping of mostly unicellular eukaryotic organisms. They are morphologically diverse and can be found in most terrestrial, aquatic, and marine habitats as free-living forms and as parasites of other protists, of fungi, and of plants and animals.

Detailed explanation-4: -Protists are eukaryotes, which means their cells have a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles. Most, but not all, protists are single-celled. Other than these features, they have very little in common. You can think about protists as all eukaryotic organisms that are neither animals, nor plants, nor fungi.

Detailed explanation-5: -Plants, animals, protists, and fungi all belong to the eukaryotic domain. This is the group of organisms whose cells have nuclei that contain DNA. The other domain is prokaryotes, which do not have a defined nucleus to contain their DNA.
