Which of the following characteristics best describe fungi? (2 points)


Eukaryotic, autotrophic, digest food externally, producer

Prokaryotic, autotrophic, digest food internally, producer

Eukaryotic, heterotrophic, digest food externally, decomposer

Prokaryotic, heterotrophic, digest food externally, decomposer

Respuesta :

Fungi are Eukaryotic, heterotrophic, digest food externally, decomposer and most closely related to Animals that is because the branching point between animals and fungi is closer than the branching point between fungi and plants. Phylogeny and modern genomic analysis show that fungi share a larger portion of their genes with animals than they do with plants. That is the actual reason why taxonomists place animals as the most closely related kingdom to fungi. Hope this helps! Good Luck!
