Protists only have one cell.

Protists are a diverse group of organisms that can vary greatly in cell number. Some protists are unicellular, consisting of a single cell, while others can be multicellular, composed of many cells.
Many living things depend on plant-like protists because they are primary producers capable of photosynthesis, converting sunlight into energy-rich organic molecules. This forms the base of many food chains and provides essential nutrients for organisms higher up in the food web. Additionally, plant-like protists release oxygen as a byproduct of photosynthesis, which is crucial for many organisms to survive.
Yes, plankton can include protists. Protists are a group of diverse eukaryotic organisms that do not fit into the plant, animal, or fungi kingdoms, and many species of plankton fall under this category.
Protists like plants because some can perform photosynthesis to produce their own food like plants. They are like animals in that they are often unicellular and can consume food other than sunlight to survive, similar to animals.

There are many plant-like protists, such as algae, that get their energy from sunlight through photosynthesis.
There is just one.

Plants, animals, and protists are all eukaryotic organisms with complex cells containing a nucleus. However, plants are primarily autotrophic, using photosynthesis to make their own food, while animals are heterotrophic, relying on consuming other organisms for food. Protists are a diverse group that can be autotrophic or heterotrophic, and they have varying cell structures and functions.
