Fungi obtain get energy by excreting enzymes into the environment (be it living or dead orangisms), absorbing the byproducts, and breaking these products down into the compounds that fuel the Krebs cycle.

How do all fungi acquire energy?
Fungi are heterotrophes, which means they get their energy from outside themselves. They do this by breaking down organic substances such as carbohydrates.
How do fungi obtain their food energy?
Throughgh the hyphae.
How do fungi differ from 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.
What energy does fungi use?
Fungi get their energy from waste materials and decaying organisms. They are able to use hyphae which absorb nutrients in one area. The hyphae will then grow out as a means to absorb other nutrients.
Do all fungi have something in common?
Fungi all have chitin in their cell walls, plate-like cisternae in their mitochondria, and a Spitzenkorper in their hyphae (if they have hyphae). Fungi also synthesize lysine using the AAA pathway and store energy as glycogen.
How do predatory fungi get energy?
how do mutualistic fungi get energy
What are four ways fungi are similar to animals?
I only have two ways Fungi can reproduce and so can animals Fungi are made of cells and so are animals
What are one of the ways fungi reproduce?
they do
Where can you get fungi from?
you can getting when you are out in the woods.
What are ways to descrbie energy?
Energy is defined as the source of power to do work. Energy, in other words, is just the source for getting something done.
How do all fungi acquire energy?

What are the ways that living things gets energy to live?
Producers such as trees and plants get their energy from the sun using a process called photosynthesis.Consumers such as animals and humans get their energy from eating other organisms.Decomposers such as bacteria and fungi get their energy from breaking down dead or decaying organisms.
How does fungi gets it food?
Fungi gets its food by photosynthesis & with the suns energy
Is there 3 ways that fungi reproduce?
Fungi reproduce in two ways. The first is through spores, which break loss and produce more on the surface they attach to. The second is asexually through vegetative growth.
Does fungi capture and use the suns energy?
No, it does not.
How are fungi different from plants in obtaining food?
Protists have a variety of ways of getting energy, not all of them are decomposers. Those that are typically ingest their food before breaking it down with enzymes. Fungi secrete enzymes into the environment and absorb the released nutrients. If you are asking how fungi are different from fungus-like protists, then the answer is more involved. Fungi synthesize lysine with a different pathway than protists and they have plate-like cristae in their mitochondria as opposed to the tubular cristae found in protists. As well, fungal hyphae growth is the result of a Spitzenkorper, an organization of cellular components including microtubules and vaculoes. Prostists lack this center of organization in their hyphae. As well, fungi have a single, whiplash flagellum that is posteriorly orientated. Prostists show variety in their flagella.
What are 2 ways that fungi reproduces?
asexualy and sexualy
