Some fungi may lack cell walls. However, some do. In the those which have cell walls, the cell membrane is generally followed by chitin (N-acteyl-D-glucosamine polymer), beta-1,3-glucan, and a layer of mannoproteins.

Hypae are strings of cells that make up the fungus. They grow into the ground and feel around for food. Once found, they inject fluid with hyphae, and the hyphae then collects the decomposed material and sends it throughout the fungus.
So, no, fungi do not "engulf" food but they use their hyphae to decompose animal/plant remains to obtain energy.

How does the cells structure of a fungus help it obtain food?
Although fungi are heterotrophs, they do not take food into their bodies as you do. Instead, fungi absorb food through hyphae that grow into the food source.
Describe how fungi obtain their food?
They absorb food through their body after extracellular digestion.

How do fungi and bacteria obtain food?
Fungi are heterophs,the obtain carbon from organic materials mainly by secreting extracellular enzymes and absorbing digested food or having symbiotic relationships with photosynthetic partners. Bacteria can be photoautotrops,photoheterophs,chemoautotrophs,chemoheterophs

Do fungi obtain or makes it's own food?
No they do not obtain there food
Do fungi obtain food?
They have hyphae which are like roots to obtain their food.
How do fungi obtain food?
Fungi obtain food through absorption. They secrete enzymes to break down organic matter into simpler molecules, which are then absorbed through their cell walls. Fungi are heterotrophic, meaning they rely on other organisms for nutrients.
Do fungi obtain food from another source?
yes
Do bacteria obtain food and reproduce the way fungi do?
no
How do fungi obtain their food energy?
Throughgh the hyphae.
What organism obtain food by absorbing dead organisms?
fungi
