What characteristics distinguish fungi from plants?

Answer 1

Distinguishing characters of fungi are: 1.It is a plant like microscopic multicellular organism living on a nutrient substrate. 2.They are achlorophyllous,heterotrophic thallophytes. 3.Every fungi contains mass of interwoven hyphae is called mycelium. 4.The mycelium may be unicellular or multicellular. 5.Fungi have definie cell wall made up of chitin. 6They have reserved food material in the form of glycogen or oil-droplets 7.They reproduce vegetatively by fragmentation,asexually by spores and sexually by gamates.

Answer 2

Fungi are not photosynthetic, although they may house PS bacteria (that is what a lichen is). Fungi have chitinous cell walls, as opposed to cellulose based walls. Fungi are heterotrophs, they cannot make their own energy, they must consume some other organism (dead or alive) for energy, as opposed to plants, which are usually autotrophs, but sometimes mixotrophs.

Answer 3

Characteristics that distinguish fungi from other organisms are plant like microscopic multicellular organism living on a nutrient substrate, fungal cell walls that contain chitin and nutritional mode.

Answer 4

Fungi are heterotrophic organisms, meaning they cannot produce their own food like plants do through photosynthesis. Fungi have chitin in their cell walls, unlike plants which have cellulose. Fungi do not have chlorophyll, which is necessary for photosynthesis in plants.

Answer 5

Fungi are heterotrophic, and plants are autotrophic. Fungi are both multicellular and unicellular.

Answer 6

well fungi are multi cellular or single cellular and they have their own nucleus, and they can only stay in one place. While bacteria is everywhere and can cause illness.

Answer 7

Produce spores

Answer 8

there is no so hahaha
