Protist are organisms that live in the water or soil. If their parasitic, they can even live in human body or an animal. They are classified into three categories. Animal-like. Plant-like. And Fungi-like. The Animal-like category is a section that actually hunts down other protists to feed. The Plant-like protist's are autotrophs. Meaning they feed from the energy of the sun. The Fungi-like protist's are decomposers. They feed on other dead protists or plant like material.
There are three different ways that protists move. Flagella, a whip like tail. Celia, little hairs surrounding the protist, and Pseudopod, which means "one foot." They use their whole bodies to move along.

Jenn,
Missing a couple of things: Benefits, Problems, and pictures to accompany your fine work. You can get most of this info from a simple online search.
I was looking over this again and noted no change. See previous comment by me. :)
