Parts of an ecosystem only include biotic factors such as plants and animals. - this is not true, it also includes abiotic factors, such as stones
If a common plant in an ecosystem becomes diseased, the ecosystem may become unbalanced. - this is the true statement! it could be a source of food for other animals, and thus it could influence the population of other species
Abiotic factors include decomposers such as fungi and bacteria. - this is false, those are biotic factors.
Tundras have a high diversity of species. - this is not true - compared to the rain forest, for example, tundras are not very diverse</span>

Do you want the catholic answer or do you just want a general answer, because it could be an opinion.
Answer:
e) unicellular, colonial, or multicellular.
Explanation:
Protists originates from the Kingdom Protoctista. They comprise of organisms that are unicellular (Amoeba) or unicellular-colonial (volvox) in nature and which have no tisssues, therefore they are at the cellular level of organization.
Examples include, Amoeba, Paramecium, Euglena, Slime mold, Kelp, Diatoms, DInoflagellates. etc.
Some of them are also considered to be multicellular eukaryotes e.g slime molds, red algae etc. Eukaryotic organisms are organisms that possess cells containing a nucleus.
Characteristics in which protists exhibit varies from one species to the other.
For example, the mode of nutrition in eukaryotic algae are autotrophic in nature, in amoeba, they are gifted with pseudopods(false feets) in which they used to engulf prey(a term known as phagocytosis) therefore making them to be heterotrophic in nature.
In protist, locomotion varies from one organism to another. For example, in Amoeba , locomotion is achieved by extending and retracting pseudopods, Euglena are flagellated in nature , hence they move with the flagella. In Paramecium that are ciliated in nature, they move by propelling their cilia. etc.
