What else can I help you with?
Which two groups are closely related evolutionarily plants and animals plants and fungi fungi and animals?
fungi & animals
What is the most primitive division of plants they have no vascular system?
Bryophytes are the most primitive division of plants that lack a vascular system. This group includes mosses, liverworts, and hornworts. They rely on diffusion to transport water and nutrients within the plant.
Why are plants and fungi placed in separate kingdoms?
Plants have chlorophyll and make energy from light; fungi don't.
How is fungi same to plants?
Fungi is part of the Plant Kingdom.
How are fungi plants different from plants?
Fungi do not use photosynthesis. Also, fungi don't have leaves and roots. Finally, unlike plants, the cell walls of fungi contain chitin.Fungi and plants are in the same domain (Eukarya), but are separate kingdoms. Plants are autotrophs (they make their own food through chemosynthesis or photosynthesis), while fungi are heterotrophs (more specifically they are either parasites or saprobes). Other differences are also present in structure (for example, fungi cell walls are made of chitin while plants' cell walls are made of cellulose), specialization, etc.
What is one similarity between fungi and plants?
Fungi and plants are multicellular.
Fungi in the phylum chitridiomycota?
Chytridiomycota is a phylum of fungi that are characterized by their flagellated spores and simple, primitive structure. They are mostly aquatic and can be saprophytic or parasitic. Some species are known to cause disease in plants and amphibians.

fungi & animals
Are plants and fungi the same?
Plants are eukaryotic autotrophs while fungi are eukaryotic heterotrophs.
Mycorrhizae are fungi that cooperate with plants Which interaction best fits the known traits of fungi and plants?
Mutualism best fits the know traits of fungi and plants. The fungi provides soil nutrients to the plant and the plant provides food to the fungi.
What are the organisms that fed on plants?
Herbivore eat plants, fungi exclusively. Omnivore eat plants and/or fungi and meat.
What are the features of fungi?
fungi were once classified as plants.
What is the most primitive division of plants they have no vascular system?
Bryophytes are the most primitive division of plants that lack a vascular system. This group includes mosses, liverworts, and hornworts. They rely on diffusion to transport water and nutrients within the plant.
Why is fungi different fron plants?
Unlike plants fungi are not primary producers. Fungi are heterotrophs, meaning they feed on other life forms.
Why are plants and fungi placed in separate kingdoms?
Plants have chlorophyll and make energy from light; fungi don't.
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.
When fungi live on the roots of plants how are they obtaining nutrients?
Fungi obtain nutrients by forming a symbiotic relationship with plants known as mycorrhizae. The fungi help plants absorb water and essential minerals, while the plants provide sugars and other organic compounds to the fungi. This mutually beneficial relationship allows both the fungi and the plants to thrive.
