Protists belong to the domain "Eukarya." The taxonomic classification of living organisms is composed of several levels, including kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species. The domain "Eukarya" is one of three domains of life and contains all organisms whose cells contain a true nucleus and membrane-bound organelles.
Protists are a diverse group of single-celled or simple multicellular eukaryotes that are not classified as animals, plants, or fungi. They include a wide range of organisms, including algae, protozoa, and slime molds. Protists play important roles in various ecosystems, including as primary producers, decomposers, and as hosts for parasites.
Therefore, protists belong to the domain "Eukarya," and are a type of eukaryote. The other two domains, "Bacteria" and "Archaea," contain single-celled prokaryotic organisms that lack a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles.
