How do fungi eat their food?
Fungi secrete enzymes to break down organic matter outside their bodies into smaller molecules which can then be absorbed across their cell walls. This process is known as extracellular digestion, and allows fungi to obtain nutrients from a wide variety of sources such as dead plant material, soil, and other organic material.
All fungi are edible?
no Yes, some are...but only the basidiomycetes (mushrooms) but remember there are tons of poisonous ones out there. Other fungi, such as yeast, are used for beer, bread, etc, but other fungi like mould are dangerous to our livers, lungs, etc.
What Ways plants fungi and animals obtain nutrients?
Everything needs some sort of nutrients to live. Fungi get their nutrients from photosynthesis, plants do the same and obtain it from the roots, animals obtain their nutrients from eating plants, and other animals.
Is a truffle multicellular or unicellular?
Truffles are multicellular organisms. They are fungi belonging to the genus *Tuber* and are composed of multiple cells like other fungi. Truffles form a network of hyphae (thread-like structures) underground, and they reproduce by producing spores. These spores develop into new truffles when conditions are favorable. While truffles themselves are not visible multicellular organisms, they are comprised
What happens to most organisms when they die?
When organisms die, their bodies start to decompose as bacteria and fungi break them down. This decomposition process releases nutrients back into the environment, allowing them to be recycled and used by other organisms.
What cleans other fishes by eating dead skin fungi and lice from their bodies?
Many different types of fish do this; often juveniles. Notably this is done by Cleaner Wrasse.
What fish clean other fishes by eating dead skin lice and fungi off their bodies?
You may be referring to a "Cleaner Wrasse"
Do all fungi except yeasts have bodies composed of filaments?
No, there are many other species of fungi that do not have bodies of filaments (called hyphae). They call into the phyla of Chytridiomycota and Neocallimastigomycota.
Where do your bodies get the materials to build nucleotides?
Mostly by eating the bodies of other living things, ie. meat.
Is deers decomposers?
No, a deer is not a decomposer. A deer is a consumer; a herbivore. It eats twigs and leaves and any other flora it can reach. Decomposers are organisms that eat away at dead materials, such as fungi eating away at the soil or deceased animal bodies.
What happens to animals after they die and other animals does not eat them?
Bacteria and or fungi decompose their bodies. Alternatively their bodies could be preserved in some way such as mineralization in fossils.

What are the nutrient sources for some decomposers?
Decomposers, such as fungi and some bacteria, use waste products (feces) from other organisms and other the dead bodies of other organisms as food.
What is an example of a fungus eating an animal?
Ascomycota, Mucoromycotina, and Basidiomycota are examples of phyla with predatory fungi species. The carnivorous fungi tend to live in soil and eat nematodes or other small animals.

Could someone explain to me WHY mushrooms belong in the fungi kingdom?
mushrooms are just the fruiting bodies of a fungus. The actual fungi is made of little strings underground. So, mushrooms are just a piece of the fungi, and no other kingdom reproduces through mushrooms do they?
