What do you think would happen to a club fungus if it was placed in an environment with no light?

A club fungus placed in an environment with no light would likely struggle to perform photosynthesis, which is critical for its growth and survival. Without access to light, the club fungus may have limited energy production, affecting its ability to thrive and reproduce. It may also experience challenges in finding nutrients without light to guide its growth towards potential food sources.

Do plants having non green leaves have chlorophyll and do they carry out photosynthesis?

True plants (as opposed to fungus) have chlorophyll in their leaves. They carry out photosynthesis like any other plant, but other chemicals in the leaves mask the chlorophyll, giving the leaf a non-green hue.There is also a species of parasitic dodder (Cuscuta europaea) which does not photosynthesize, and depends on other plants for nutrition.


Can mushrooms do photosynthesis?

Mushrooms are a type of fungus and they are used for spreading their organism's spores. Fungi are absorptive heterotrophs and obtain their food from their environments. They do not go through photosynthesis.
