Fungi and Protists Concepts Assessment

This video explores fungi and protists, both eukaryotic organisms. Fungi can be unicellular or multicellular, with examples like yeast and mushrooms. They can cause diseases such as rose black spot. Protists are mostly unicellular and can be parasites, with malaria being a notable disease caused by a protist. Malaria is transmitted by mosquitoes, which act as vectors. Prevention methods include reducing mosquito populations and using mosquito nets. The video concludes with a call to action for viewers to like and subscribe.
