Geology's Unifying Theory. Plate tectonics is the framework in which geologists study and understand the inner workings of the earth. It provides us with a way to tie together what once was considered unrelated geologic processes and events.
Protists live in almost any environment that contains liquid water. Many protists, such as algae, are photosynthetic and are vital primary producers in ecosystems, particularly in the ocean as part of the plankton.ome protists are significant parasites of animals (e.g., five species of the parasitic genus Plasmodium cause malaria in humans and many others cause similar diseases in other vertebrates), plants (the oomycete Phytophthora infestans causes late blight in potatoes) or even of other protists.
- Protists are a wide group of eukaryotic microorganisms. - They are either multicellular or most commonly unicellular. - They are most commonly found in the water especially in ponds or lakes. - They can be harmful or/and helpful to humans.
