FUNGI CELL WALL
Fungi possess cell walls made of the GLUCOSAMINE polymer CHITIN.
PLANT CELL WALL
In plants, the strongest component of the complex cell wall is a carbohydrate called cellulose, which is a polymer of glucose.

∙ 16y agothe cell wall in fungi are made of chitin, the plant cell wall isn't

∙ 14y agocell wall in fungi is made up of chitin while in plants and bacteria it is made up of cellulose

∙ 11y agoplant and fungi are basically friend enemy's, sometimes they work together sometimes the don't

1.CELL WALL:- having a more rigidity & this is a strongest cover of the PLANT
2.FUNGI CELL WALL(Mushroom):-they have cell-wall made of a tough Complex Sugar called Chitin.

Why do scientists not consider plants to be fungi?
Plants are made out of cells with cell walls constructed of cellulose, the fiberous pieces in plants. Fungi, in contrast, have cells walls constructed of chitin. Fungi are also heterotrophs, obtaining nutrients from other living organisms. Plants are autotrophs, creating nutrients from photosynthesis. Fungi don't have leaves. Plants do. In general, fungi are fundamentally different than plants. For that reason, scientists categorize them differently.
What do fungi have in common with plants?
Fungi are not plants.
How are fungi plants different from plants?
Fungi do not use photosynthesis. Also, fungi don't have leaves and roots. Finally, unlike plants, the cell walls of fungi contain chitin.Fungi and plants are in the same domain (Eukarya), but are separate kingdoms. Plants are autotrophs (they make their own food through chemosynthesis or photosynthesis), while fungi are heterotrophs (more specifically they are either parasites or saprobes). Other differences are also present in structure (for example, fungi cell walls are made of chitin while plants' cell walls are made of cellulose), specialization, etc.
Why do fungi not belong to plants?
They are not producers and lack chlorophyll. They can not make their own food, though nether can some parasitic plants. Fungi have different cell walls than plants. Plants use cellulose to construct cells walls while fungi use chitin.
What is the difference between fungi and plantae?
The list of the differences between fungi and plantae is extremely long... * Plants are Photosynthesizers, Fungi are decomposers * Plants and Fungi have completely different cell makeup * Plants come from seeds, Fungi don't The list goes on and on... It seems that the only reason that anyone would even think of classifying them under the same Kingdom name, is that they are both stationary, and cannot go find their own food.

What evidence supports putting fungi into a separate kingdom from plants?
Fungi have cell walls made of chitin. Plants have cellulosic cell walls.
In which ways are fungi different from plants?
Some Fungi can be multicellular and others can be unicellular. Their cell walls are chitin and fungi are also heterotrophs. Plants are only multicellular. Their cell walls are of cellulose and plants are autotrophs.

What do fungi have common with plants?
Fungi are more closely related to animals than plants. They do share some similarity to plants, though. For example, plants and fungi are both able to synthesize the amino acid lysine (animals are not); however, fungi use the AAA pathway, and plants use the DAP pathway. Plants and fungi have cells walls. Plant cell walls are made of cellulose, while fungal cell walls are made of chitin.
How are plants and fungi different?
Plants are autotrophic organisms that produce their own food through photosynthesis, while fungi are heterotrophic organisms that obtain nutrients by absorbing them from their surroundings. Plants have cell walls made of cellulose, while fungi have cell walls made of chitin. Additionally, plants typically have roots, stems, and leaves for structure and support, while fungi consist of mycelium and fruiting bodies.
What does it mean when someone says most fungi have many cells?
eukaryotes such as plants and fungi have cell walls in them.
Both plants and fungi have cell walls made up of cellulose True or False?
False, there are some fungi-like organisms with cellulose, but true fungi do not have cellulose in the cell walls.
How are the cells of fungi similar to cells in plants?
Both have cell walls.
