3 Things I learned about Protists and Fungi:
PROTISTS:
PROTISTS:
1. Protists aren't plants, animals, or fungi, but they can act plant-like (autotrophs), animal-like (heterotrophs), and fungi-like (Decomposers and Parasites).
2. Protists are eukaryotes and most are unicellular.
3. Protists are classified on where they get their energy.
FUNGI:
FUNGI:
1. Most fungi are multicellular, but there are a few which are unicellular.
2. Fungi are nature's claening and recycling crew because they are decomposers.
3. Fungi have cell walls and thrive in warm, damp, places.

Connections:
I can connect to protists because carrageenan, which is extracted from red algae, a plant-like protist, is in everyday foods like puddings and ice cream because it makes it thick. I am that kind of person that will have ice cream after every dinner if I could, so I can connect to protists because it is in the ice cream I eat.

I can connect to fungi because yeast is a form of fungi and it is in everyday foods like bread. I can see how many other people can also connect to this because sandwiches are a common lunch meal.
