What us the function of the large vacuole present in the cells of green plants?
In the protists there are food vacuoles in which food is digested so that it can be used by the cell. This is the large vacuole present in plant cells.
What are facts about animal like protists?
Type your answer here... Fungi are their own, separate kingdom. They are distinct from protists. One reason is because of the way in which fungi obtain nutrients. They are heterotrophic absorptive, which means that they secrete enzymes onto their food source and then absorb the digested material. This is akin to you squirting enzymes from your stomach onto your plate of food, waiting then absorbing the digested products through your skin. Wierd enough to put you in your own, separate kingdom. Protists fall into 2 categories, algae, who are photosynthetic autotrophs, and protozoa, who are heterotrophic ingestive.

Do plantlike protists make their own food?
Animal-like protists do not make their own food, they are consumers, which are things that consume (take in) food. Plant-like protists can, because they use photosynthesis:the process in which a plant (including plant-like protists) makes its own food with sunlight.
Which organelles were once free-living protists that got eaten but not digested by larger cells?
chloroplasts; mitochondria
How do other protists feed?
They get their food from the surrounding environment, during feeding the process the amoeba produces long extensions of its body known as Pseudo pods around the food until it is completely surrounded. This creates a food is then digested by special molecules called Enzymes that break down the food into much smaller particles that the amoeba can use as energy for movement.
Where does the food that cannot be digested go?
The food that cannot be digested goes to the large intestine.
Where does food go that cannot be digested?
The food that cannot be digested goes to the large intestine.
Organ were digested food is absorbed?
Food is broken down or digested in the stomach but the nutrients are not absorbed in the stomach. Nutrients from digested food are primarily absorbed in the small intestine.
