Why do some scientists classify fungi as plants and other scientists classify them as animals?

Some scientists classify fungi as plants because they share certain characteristics like cell walls and non-motility. Other scientists classify fungi as animals due to their heterotrophic nature, similar to animals, and their ability to store energy as glycogen, like animals do. Ultimately, fungi are placed in their own kingdom, separate from plants and animals, due to their unique characteristics.


What are fungi that do not fit into other standard groups of fungi called?

The first group of fungi is called Division Zygomycota. The second group is Division Ascomycota, or sac fungi, and the third group is Division Basidiomycota. The fungi that do not fit in to any of these groups are put in to the "junk drawer" of fungi. This group is called Division Deuteromycota, or "imperfect fungi". All fungi are classified based on the structure in which their spores are produced, but in this "imperfect" group, scientists have never observed their spores being produced. Because of this, they cannot classify them in to any other group.


Are fungi plants or animals?

They are of their own kingdom; Fungi.They generally are decomposers, not photosynthesizers.Some "fungi" are difficult to classify and have been classified as fungi because they have more similarities with fungi than actual plants or other life-forms.It is a life-form that is widely researched and some specimens tickle many a scientist brain as to where they actually belong.This middle paragraph seems to confuse Fungi with Protista. " Scientists brains are not tickled " as to where Fungi belong as they are all Eumycota. The only dispute over classification is within the group Fungi as molecular genetics has challenged some taxonomy that classified Fungi physically. Fungi are not plants, animals or protists.
