On a macro level, fungi look a lot like plants. Scientists felt either that fungi were simple plants without chloroplasts, or had shed these parts to become mostly parasitic.
They have cell walls, and outside of some slime molds, are not mobile. Their mycellium (the fuzzy white lines that are the 'real' fungus) are outwardly similar to a simple root system. They also 'fruited' with mushrooms of some form on most of the higher species.
The DNA and proteins told a very different story! On a genetic level, animals and plants are very similar, so similar that it's now believed the ancestor of fungi should be on the same fork of the 'tree of life'.
Fungi (mushrooms and toadstools, etc) are neither plants nor animals, but they're closer to being animals.
It is a bacterial germ that sets on plants and sets on things that are not daily looked after or washed
Fungi were originally classified as a part of Kingdom Plantae because, superficially, they resemble plants: seemingly inanimate and have cell walls. However, it was later discovered, based on genetic evidence, that fungi are more closely related to animals than to plants. Thus, fungi were found to be a separate kingdom. Several distinguishing features of fungi that corroborate this fact are: 1. fungi are heterotropic and thus cannot produce their own food, unlike autotrophic plants; 2. fungi have cell walls composed of chitin instead of cellulose (as in plants); 3. fungi do not have chlorophyll.
Fungi aren't considered plants because they lack an autotrophic metabolism (the capacity to photosynthetize) and fungal cell walls are composed of chitin, instead of cellulose.
Fungi is not included in the plant kingdom.
Fungi are NOT considered to be plants.

Fungi lack chloroplasts, which means they are unable to undergo photosynthesis as plants are. This means that while plants are typically autotrophs (producers), fungi are heterotrophs (consumers). Fungi have a cell wall of chitin instead of the cellulose that plants make. Fungi store energy as glycogen; plants store energy as starch. Fungi have a single, posteriorly oriented flagellum while plants have multiple flagella that are anteriorly oriented.
none of these are plants, they are all fungi
Fungi plants have no sperm cells, so no
fungi is niether animal nor plant, it have it's own kingdom called kingdom fungi, previously it was considered as plant because of the presence of cell wall. but the cell wall of fungus isn't made up of cellulose instead it is made up of chitin. so it is not animal or plant.
The fungi (singular, fungus) once were considered to be plants because they grow out of the soil and have rigid cell walls. Now they are placed independently in their own kingdom of equal rank with the animals and plants and, in fact, are more closely related to animals than to plants. I hope I helped! 😁
No, all of them are considered fungi
Fungi are considered now as separated from plants and animals.
No, strawberries are part of the flowering group of plants. In fact, fungi are no longer considered part of the plant kingdom.

Fungi and plants are multicellular.

Fern is a type of plant. It belongs to the group of plants known as pteridophytes, which reproduce through spores instead of seeds. Fungi, on the other hand, are a separate kingdom of organisms that are not considered plants.
Fungi are not plants.
The results of meiosis in plants and fungi is the formation of genes
Plants are eukaryotic autotrophs while fungi are eukaryotic heterotrophs.

Mutualism best fits the know traits of fungi and plants. The fungi provides soil nutrients to the plant and the plant provides food to the fungi.
