A cell wall with a peptidoglycan is usually found in plants, fungi, bacteria, algae, and archaea. Therefore, it is not a characteristic of a protist. Some protists lack cell wall. However, for those that have one, their cell walls are made up of cellulose.

A. cell wall containing peptidoglycan

An amoeba uses pseudopodia, which means false feet, for its locomotion.

D. pseudopod

In conjugation, hollow bridge between two bacterial cells are formed in order to exchange genetic material with each other. This process increases the genetic variation in these organisms.

B. It results in the trading of some genetic material with another organism.

Slime molds lack chlorophyll and chitin in their cell walls. Their absence of chlorophyll makes them unable to undergo photosynthesis.

D. photosynthetic

Algae are classified as photosynthetic organisms which are either unicellular or multicellular. The life cycle of most algae goes through a process known as alternation of generations, wherein it includes an alternation between diploid and haploid stages. One of the many roles of the algae in the ecosystem is being the food source of most marine animals. Algae are mostly symbiotic.

A protist has a food vacuole that contains food particles and helps in digestion.

E. Food vacuole

A gullet is one of the specialized parts of a protist. Its function is to transport the food from the mouth into the food vacuole.

D. gullet

The contractile vacuole, which is found in unicellular organisms, contracts to expel excess liquid.

A. Contractile vacuole

In a unicellular eukaryote, this pore serve as the structure that ejects the undigested food in its body.

C. anal pore
