Protists are single and multicellular organisms that are plant-like, animal-like and fungi-like. They evolved from bacteria and represent the intermediate step in the evolution of the other three kingdoms. There are 12 phyla in this kingdom, most of which live in water.
Protists that are classified as animal-like are called protozoans and share some common traits with animals. All animal-like protists are heterotrophs. Likewise, all animal-like protists are able to move in their environment in order to find their food. Unlike, animals, however, animal-like protists are all unicellular.
