Fungi lack chlorophyll which means they can't photosynthesize, and the composition of fungal cell walls are quite different from those of plants.
According to the new classification of living organisms, fungi are neither plants nor animals. They are in a separate Kingdom: Fungi.
The group of seedless plants that does not have chlorophyll is fungi. Fungi are heterotrophic organisms that obtain nutrients by breaking down organic matter in their surroundings. They do not photosynthesize like plants, which is why they lack chlorophyll.
Fungi are like plants because they don't move like plants. Because of this early scientists have classified fungi into same category as plants. Fungi are like animals because they are heterotrophic. They cannot produce their own food. One plant that moves like an animal is the TickleMe Plant. The leaves of the TickleMe Plant fold up and the branches droop when Tickled and it can be grown as a pet indoors.
A lot of Plants would suffer and/or die greatly because Fungi provides them nutrients.

Fungi have a cellulose cell wall
like plants
Plants produce their own food through photosynthesis, while fungi must obtain nutrients from their environment. Plants have cell walls primarily made of cellulose, while fungi have cell walls made of chitin. Plants reproduce through seeds and spores, while fungi reproduce through spores.

Fungi are considered now as separated from plants and animals.

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.

Fungi and plants are multicellular.
