What are protozoans, bacteria, fungi, and viruses?

Let me start with the eukaryotic organisms.

First of all, the term Protozoans has been abandoned by scientists due to the complex nature of the sub-kingdom revealed with genetic evidence. Currently, "" Briefly, they are single-celled microorganisms that use organic carbon as a form of energy. They are typically microscopic and live in moist and aquatic habitats. "" that allow them to be motile

Fungi is a Kingdom that includes yeasts, molds, mushrooms, and other organisms. They are eukaryotic organisms that are distinguished from plants due to the fact that they lack chlorophyll and are distinguished from other living organisms by their methods of vegetative growth and nutrient intake. Unlike Protozoans, Fungi are composed of filaments called hyphae that make up the bodies of the organisms, mycelia. "they digest organic matter externally before absorbing it into their mycelia." Furthermore, they live freely in soil and water.

Mushrooms are simply the most common type of Fungi. They speed up decomposition of dead or fallen trees simply because they ?eat? or break down dead plants.

Bacteria is a group of single-celled prokaryotic(do not have a membrane enclosed nucleus) organisms that live in almost every environment on Earth. "There are typically 40 million bacterial cells in a gram of soil and a million bacterial cells in a millilitre of fresh water." Their shapes range from spheres to rods and spirals.


Finally, Viruses are not living things, but agents that consist of molecules including proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, and carbohydrates. They basically can do nothing on their own until they enter a living cell where they are able to replicate and move to other cells. They are able to infect all types of organisms, from animals and plants to bacteria.

What is an amoeba, is it a virus, protista, fungi, or bacteria?

Protozoans, bacteria and yeasts(fungi) are all single celled microorganisms with the exception of viruses. Protozoans and yeast/fungi are eukaryotes; fungi are multicellular. Eukaryotes have a nucleus, organelles and many have locomotive organs. Bacteria are prokaryotes and lack a nucleus and other recognizable organelles. Viruses are very small and not capable of metabolism or reproduction without a host cell.
