Answer 1

Protista is a specialized group of organisms comprises animal like, plant like, fungus like and molds.

They are exclusively eukaryotic, mostly unicellular (protozoans) and some are multicellular also like algae and nutrition is all kind including mixtriphs, heterotrophs and autotrophs (due to chlorplast in the cell and synthesize own food through photosynthesis).
