Protists for Dummies

Welcome to my biology blog!

This blog is intended for my biology 11 project, so that I may learn and discover more about Protists. If you wish to journey with me in the kingdom of protists, then read on my fellow wonderer!

Pro-tist (prō'tĭst):

Any of a group of eukaryotic organisms belonging to the kingdom Protista according to some widely used modern taxonomic systems. The protists include a variety of unicellular,  colonial, and multicellular organisms, such as the protozoans, slime molds, brown algae, and red algae.

This site had some good interesting facts about animal-like, fungus-like and plant like protista. I didn't use it too much, but was a definite help.
