What else can I help you with?
Does fern carry out photosynthesis?
Yes, ferns do carry out photosynthesis. They have chlorophyll in their fronds, which allows them to capture sunlight and convert it into energy. The process of photosynthesis in ferns is essential for their growth and survival.
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.
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.
Why are fungi not able to carry out photosynthesis?
In order to photosynthesis a plant needs a substance called chlorophyll, which helps produce sugars from sunlight (as a catalyst) water and carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Chlorophyll is a vivid green in colour and is present in the cells of all plants giving plants their green colour. Although growing in the ground like a plant, mushrooms are not ppart of the plant kingdom, but are in a separate group called fungi which includes mushrooms, toadstools, moulds and yeasts. As fungi are not green, but usually a white or grey colour, they do not contain chlorophyll, and so they cannot photosynthesise as they don't have this substance necessary for photosynthesis. Instead, mushrooms and other fungi have to get their nutrients from dead and decaying plants which is why you often see fungus growing on dead wood in forests.
Which of the 5 kingdoms contain organisms that carry out Photosynthesis and respiration?
Monera, Protista, Plantae, Fungi, Animalia
How is fungi different from photosynthesis?
Fungi do not have the ability to undergo photosynthesis.
Can mushrooms do photosynthesis?
Mushrooms are a type of fungus and they are used for spreading their organism's spores. Fungi are absorptive heterotrophs and obtain their food from their environments. They do not go through photosynthesis.
Does fern carry out photosynthesis?
Yes, ferns do carry out photosynthesis. They have chlorophyll in their fronds, which allows them to capture sunlight and convert it into energy. The process of photosynthesis in ferns is essential for their growth and survival.
Does a mushroom use oxygen in its metablism?
Yes, fungi and their fruiting bodies (mushrooms) are aerobic organisms and thus require oxygen for their metabolism.
Does all fungi grow using sunlight and carbon dioxide?
All fungi grow using sunlight and carbon dioxide. This is because they all carry out photosynthesis to make their own food.
What do you think would happen to a club if it was placed in an environment with no light?
nothing would happen because fungi dont carry out photosynthesis.
What organ isms can carry on photosynthesis?
autotrophs, usually plants or some fungi.They are called photoautotrophs. Fungi never photosynthetic organisms
Does some fungi produce photosynthesis?
All fungi are heterotrophic. No fungi is a photoautotroph
Do plants really do all of the photosynthesizing?
No, not all plants engage in photosynthesis. Only green plants and certain microorganisms have the ability to perform photosynthesis. Other types of plants, like fungi and non-green algae, do not carry out photosynthesis.
Can fungi make their food through photosynthesis?
No, fungi are either saprophytic or parasitic in nature, therefore, these are not equiped for photosynthesis.
What can plants do that fungi cannot?
photosynthesis
