A protist is not an animal, its a single-celled organism (not technically an organism) and can "swim" in anything
----------------
A protist can be an animal (paramecium). A protist can be multicellular (algae) A protist is an organism because it can respond to stimuli, reproduce, develop and maintain homeostasis. They can swim in any fluid as long as it is not toxic or uninhabitable (boiling water, liquid nitrogen, sulfuric acid)) for their species.

What are animal- like protists also called?
Animal-like protists are also called protozoans. They are unicellular organisms that exhibit animal-like behaviors, such as feeding on other organisms for nutrients and moving using structures like cilia or flagella.
Protists that have animal like characteristics?
Protozoa
How does protist cell move?
Most protists move and generate their movement with cilia, flagella, or pseudopodia (false feet).Protists that are classified as animal-like are called protozoans and share some common traits with animals.All animal-like protists are heterotrophs. Likewise, all animal-like protists are able to move in their environment in order to find their food. Unlike, animals, however, animal-like protists are all unicellular.

Animal like protists are known as what?
pyrrophyta ------------- Pyrrohphyta are a type of dinoflagellate which are a type of flagellated protists and sub-classification of protists. Animal-like protists would be known as eukaryotic organisms. Examples of some of the animal-like protists would be paramecium, amoeba, euglena, vorticella and most of what are historically known as protozoans.
