[[User:Harleydude111|Harleydude111]] 20:25, 4 Sep 2008 (UTC)[[User:Harleydude111|Harleydude111]] 20:25, 4 Sep 2008 (UTC)[[User:Harleydude111|Harleydude111]] 20:25, 4 Sep 2008 (UTC) A mushroom cannot be simply classified as either an animal or a plant. It is obviously not an animal as it does not eat either animals or plants, which is a rather simplistic way to classify animals.

Mushrooms actually absorb food and nutrients from decaying matter around them.
