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.

Fungi have cell walls made of chitin and are unable to photosynthesize. As well, sexual reporduction is drastically different in fungi from plants.

Plants have cell walls made of cellulose. The most importnatn difference is that plants have chloroplasts containing chlorophyll, which enables to photosynthesize.
