They have a nucleus, unicellular, some have features of animals (protozoa), some have features of plants (algae).

What sort of feeders are protoctista?
The animal-type ones are heterotrophic. They have to feed on other organisms to gain nutrients. The plant-like ones are autotrophic, so can produce their own organic nutrients.

What are the main features of fungi?
Eukaryotic, walls are made of chitin, they have many nuclei, they are mostly multicellular, reproduce by spores. They are saprophytes, so they gain nutrients from dead organic matter.
