How do protists gather energy?

Solution

Protists:
Protists eat a variety of foods, some of which are phototrophic, meaning they obtain their energy from sunshine.
To obtain energy, other animal-like protists must consume organic substances.
Slime moulds, for example, are fungi-like protists that degrade decomposing matter into useful nutrients.
