All fungi make their living by absorbing food directly from their surrounding.

Extracellular digestion - synthesize digestive enzymes and then secrete them outside into their food. After digestion, the fungi then absorbs the nutrients.

Releases exoenzymes to digest organisms.

Lignin degradation - uses enzyme called lignin peroxidaseto break down lignin in order to get to the cellulose, which is their food.

Cellulose digestion - uses an enzyme called cellulases to digest cellulose

Are fungi heterotrophic by absorption?

Yes they are. First, the fungus grows hyphae into a food source. Then digestive chemicals ooze from the hyphae into the food. The digestive chemicals break down the food into small substances that can be absorbed by the hyphae. Source: Prentice Hall Science Explorer: From Bacteria to Plants
