They also have cell walls and reproduce by forming spores, just like fungi. Fungus-like protists usually do not move, but a few develop movement at some point in their lives. Two major types of fungus-like protists are slime molds and water molds.

Answer:

Slime molds and water molds

Step-by-step explanation:

Slime molds and water molds are fungus-like protists. Like a fungus, they have a cell wall around their cells. Both slime mold and water mold are heterotrophic and can not make their own food. They also derive their nutrition from dead and decaying organic matter.

Like a fungus, these two protists also reproduced by the formation of spores.
