Fungi are heterotrophic organisms, meaning they cannot produce their own food through photosynthesis like plants. Instead, they obtain nutrients by decomposing organic matter, including dead plants, animals, and other organic materials. They secrete enzymes that break down complex substances into simpler compounds, which they then absorb for nourishment. This process plays a crucial role in nutrient cycling within ecosystems.
Fungi feed on decomposing organic matter such as dead plants, animals, and waste material. They obtain nutrients by secreting enzymes that break down organic material into simpler compounds, which they then absorb for energy.
Most fungi work with plants in their environment to feed and exchange food. Fungi will frequently pass sugars to the host plant whilst feedin on water from the host. MOst fungi rely on the decay of materials to form tendrals which absorbe salts and sugars from the rotting product.
No, fungi do not make food through photosynthesis. Unlike plants, fungi are heterotrophic organisms that obtain nutrients by absorbing organic matter from their environment or by forming symbiotic relationships with other organisms.
fungi does not make there own food its a mith
The Fungi Kingdom does not move or produce chlorophyll, so they cannot make their own food. They feed off of other\ things. For example, mold grows on foods and feeds off of that food.
vegetation
fungi only grows on rotting vegetation because it doesn't have any chlorophyll so it can't make it's own food, so it grows on rotting vegetation because it can take the food from the other plants.
they are autotrophs so they get there own food

No, fungi are consumers not producers. They decompose or parasitize other organisms.
Mold is a fungus and fungi are incapable of making their own food. Fungi feed on organic matter and that is why you see it on old groceries, it is breaking down organic matterial to get it's nutritions.
No. Fungi do not make their food. Things that make their own food are called "Producers" Plants are a producer, but Fungi are Decomposers, which means that they secret digestive juices on nearby life forms, and then they absorb that living thing's nutrients.

Fungi actually don't make their food, they're heterotrophic, or decomposer, even though they have cell walls. You find fungi near their food source.
