yes When the fungi DNA is cut open by restriction enzymes, you can insert a DNA of a plant, green algae or any organism that undergoes photosynthesis by cutting open it's DNA by restriction enzymes and combining the two open strands of DNA by enzyme T4 DNA Ligase.

Can fungi make their food through photosynthesis?

No, fungi are either saprophytic or parasitic in nature, therefore, these are not equiped for photosynthesis.


Do fungi possess chloroplasts?

No, fungi do not possess chloroplasts. Chloroplasts are found in plant cells and are responsible for photosynthesis, which fungi do not perform.


Does fungi carry photosynthesis?

No, fungi do not carry out photosynthesis. Unlike plants, fungi obtain their energy by breaking down organic matter from their surroundings. They are heterotrophic organisms that rely on consuming nutrients rather than producing their own through photosynthesis.


Is phtosynethesis a important role of fungi in the ecosystem?

Actually, no. Organisms in the kingdom Plantae do not contain chlorophyll and do not undergo photosynthesis. Only organsims in kingdom Plantae undergo photosynthesis. Organisms in kingdom Fungi are typically parasitic and live on other organisms.


Do members of the fungi kingdom photosynthesize?

Most commonly, fungi are saprophytic in nutrition, i.e., they derive nutrition from dead and decaying organic matter. BUT: Lichens are a form of fungus that host cyanobacteria to conduct photosynthesis... except the cyanobacteria have evolved to be dependent on their fungal hosts, and therefore are symbiotes. Plants, likewise, do not directly conduct photosynthesis. Their chloroplasts are simply cyanobacteria that have evolved to become completely dependent on their plant hosts. So, really, lichens are effectively photosynthetic in the same sense plants are. But are a composite organism composed of a fungus (nonphotosynthetic) and cyanobacteria (photosynthetic), instead of a single organism

Does fungi make food through photosynthesis?

No, fungi do not make food through photosynthesis. Unlike plants, fungi are heterotrophic organisms that obtain nutrients by absorbing organic matter from their environment or by forming symbiotic relationships with other organisms.

Which two compounds are needed for photosynthesis?

Plants require both water and carbon dioxide to conduct photosynthesis. Sunlight energy is also required by plants to conduct photosynthesis.


Do mushroom have chloroplast?

No, mushrooms do not have chloroplasts. As fungi, they obtain nutrients through absorption rather than photosynthesis. Mushrooms obtain their energy from breaking down organic matter in their environment.


What statements is not true of fungi?

Fungi are plants. Fungi produce their own food through photosynthesis. Fungi are important decomposers in ecosystems. Fungi reproduce through spores.


What and the function of the chloroplast?

Mitochondria conduct aerobic respiration.Chloroplast conduct the photosynthesis.
