Members of protista can be all, except
Decomposers
Parasites
Photoautotrophs
Chemoautotrophs​

Answer 1

Answer:

Parasites

Explanation:

Parasites live in or on an organism and harm the organism. A significant number of protists are pathogenic parasites that must infect other organisms to survive and propagate. Protist parasites include the causative agents of malaria, African sleeping sickness, and waterborne gastroenteritis in humans.

Answer 2

Members of protista can be all, except chemoautotrophs.

• Chemoautotrophs are organisms that create or derive their energy from inorganic compounds by chemosynthesis. Example: Bacteria and protozoa.

• Protists can either be photoautotrophs( derive energy from sunlight) or chemoheterotrophs( derive energy from organic compounds).

• Protists can also be decomposers as they feed on dead and decaying organisms to get their nutrition. Example: chytrids, oomycetes.

• A section of protists are also parasitic as they infect other organisms for their survival. Example: Plasmodium, Trypanosoma.
