<h2>What are Fungi? 🍄</h2>
<p>Fungi are a diverse group of organisms that play crucial roles in ecosystems. They can be found in various environments, from soil and water to on other living organisms. Fungi can be:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Unicellular:</strong> Single-celled organisms like yeasts.

<h2>What are Protists? 🦠</h2>
<p>Protists are a diverse group of eukaryotic microorganisms that do not fit into the other kingdoms (Plantae, Animalia, Fungi). They include:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Protozoa:</strong> Single-celled organisms that often exhibit animal-like behaviors, such as movement and predation.

<p>Protists play various ecological roles, including being primary producers in aquatic ecosystems and decomposers in terrestrial environments. See how they have some visual similarities to fungi?</p>
