Explanation:

The fungus-like protists are organisms that seem like plants, but are much more closely related to the animals. They tend to be parasitic, thus they use a host in order to be able to get the needed nutrition. Unlike the producers, the fungus-like protists are not capable of performing the process of photosynthesis, thus they do not produce their own food. Considering these characteristics, it is no wonder that they can mostly be found on dead plants from which they can feed upon.
