Protists are organisms that are classified in their own kingdom. Protists are not plants or animals, yet some protists have characteristics similar to those of either plants or animals or both. A protist like the protozoan shown in the picture has similarities to both plants and animals. This protozoan is similar to animals because it has the ability to move from place to place while obtaining nutrients. This protozoan also shares a similarity with plants.

Which feature labeled on the protozoan is associated with organisms in the plant kingdom but not in other kingdoms except protists?

Chloroplast

Is that the right answer

Yes, the correct answer is Chloroplast. Chloroplasts are organelles that contain chlorophyll and are responsible for photosynthesis in plants. Some protists, like certain algae, also have chloroplasts and can perform photosynthesis. This feature is unique to organisms in the plant kingdom and some protists.
