are all unicellular organisms called protozoa?

Solution

No, all unicellular organisms are not called protozoa. Broadly, unicellular cells are either prokaryotes(simple cell structure) or eukaryotes(complex cell structure).

Protozoa are unicellular, motile, eukaryotic organisms which have animal like behaviour. e.g. Entamoeba histolytica.
