In Protista - Slime Molds

Hanging from a piece of deadwood, here you see the orangish sporangia of a slime mold. These guys lie within the Protista Kingdom, and with about 900 species, can be found on just about every corner of the globe. Slime molds are single-celled amoebas that can gather by the thousands, forming multicelled bodies that can creep or grow into large pulsating bodies. .............................................................................. #earth #science #animals #nature #education
