Answer:
Plant-like protists can be unicellular, filamentous, or colonial. Most unicellular protists are microscopic, but some, like Caulerpa, are very large. Caulerpa form structures that resemble leaves, roots, and other tissues found in plants. Each plant-like structure formed by Caulerpa is actually a single cell. The cell wall is composed of cellulose. The cell wall extends into the cytoplasm, forming structures called trabeculae to give shape to the leaf-, root-, and stem-like structures formed by the organism. The cell wall also functions to give the cell shape and protection in microscopic unicellular algae.
