This document provides an overview of protists and their classification. It discusses three main groups of protists: protozoans, algal protists, and fungus-like protists. Protozoans are classified based on their locomotion and include amoebas, heliozoans, foraminifera, apicomplexans, zoomastigines, and ciliates. Algal protists include dinoflagellates, golden algae, diatoms, euglenoids, green algae, brown algae, and red algae. They are classified based on their cell wall components and are mostly photosynthetic. Fungus-like protists include plasmodial and cellular slime
