Does a fungus have chlorophyll?
Fungi do not have chlorophyll in their cells. They cannot produce food, so they must depend upon other living or dead things for food. Fungi CANNOT survive alone. Fungi do not have chlorophyll in their cells. They cannot produce food, so they must depend upon other living or dead things for food. Fungi CANNOT survive alone.
How Bracket fungi get its own food?
Bracket fungi absorb nutrients from decaying organic matter, such as dead wood. The fungi secrete enzymes that break down complex molecules into simpler forms that can be absorbed by the fungus. This process allows the bracket fungi to obtain the nutrients they need for growth and reproduction.
What does zygomycota eat?
Fungi remove nutrients from other organic matter, living or dead, using their digestive enzymes. Most need water for at least some of their life cycles. Unlike plants, fungi do not make their own food, but some appear able to absorb energy from ionizing radiation using the pigment melanin.
Why can't fungi make its own food?
mushrooms are decomposers. they decompose and breakdown dead tissues of other plants or species and restore the minerals etc back into the soil. They dont need to make their own food like animals or plants.
How are ferns and fungi different?
1. Ferns make their own food and fungi are saprophytes or parasites 2. Ferns are vascular plants and fungi belong to non-vascular category 3. The main plant body in ferns is differentiated into root, stem and leaves; fungi are mostly made up of filamentous mycelium.
Why don't fungi need light to survive?
Fungi feed off of dead or decaying materials. Only plants need sunlight to survive, because they produce their own food through photosynthesis.
Does a fungus have chlorophyll?

Different between fern and fungi?
Fungi depend on other plants. Ferns make their own food. A fern has one more step (Prothallus). Fungi do not. ferns need fertilization. Fungi do not need fertilization.
Does bracket fungi need sunlight to survive?
No, fungi are not plants. They need food and water to survive.
How Bracket fungi get its own food?
Bracket fungi absorb nutrients from decaying organic matter, such as dead wood. The fungi secrete enzymes that break down complex molecules into simpler forms that can be absorbed by the fungus. This process allows the bracket fungi to obtain the nutrients they need for growth and reproduction.
Can the comsumer be a heterotroph?
Heterotrophs are animals, fungi or protists that cannot do photosynthesis nor make their own food, so they consume other organisms (either alive or dead) as food. Consumers are organisms that need to eat others to survive (rather than make their own food via photosynthesis.) So, yes, consumers are heterotrophs.
Does a fungi need sunlight to grow?
No, fungi do not need sunlight to grow. They obtain nutrients by breaking down organic matter, such as dead plants or animals, through a process called decomposition. Fungi can grow in dark and damp environments.
Where would bacteria and fungi be found growing?
Bacteria and fungi can be found mostly in moist places because they need the water to drink. So what I'm saying is water your toes with a watering can to keep them growing. Make sure you provide them with food (slugs and dead skin from your head). Good luck with growing your fungi so that they can help you take over the world. Don't count on it. Go to your GP for more information.
Why is a mushroom a fungus and not a plant?
Mushrooms are classified as fungi rather than plants because first of all, they do not contain chlorophyll to make their own food, so as a result they are not green and do not need sunlight to grow. Second, there are no actual roots, leaves, or stems. (the tightly packed hyphae make the stem/stalk seem solid). Third, mushrooms mostly feed on dead organisms, which keep the environment clean. So without the fungi's, or mushrooms, help, the Earth would be littered with dead plants and animals!
