Question

whats the difference between animals and animal-like protists

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

*In the wikipedia articles it tends to say things such as "MOST animals are multicellular" and "MOST animals have an embryonic blastula stage". So to answer your question, protists are single celled eukaryotes who do not share a multicelled ancestor with animals (or plants or fungi).

*An animal-like protist, or a protozoa. These protists have the ability to move, usually with some sort of cilia or flagella, and must obtain their energy from other sources. But obviously, they are much simpler than animals.
