Question

what statement describes a way in which fungi differ from plants?
multiple choice
plants are heterotrophic, and fungi are autotrophic.
fungi are composed of tissues, while plants have filamentous bodies.
fungi have cell walls made of chitin, but plants have cell walls made of cellulose.
most fungi have spores with flagella

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Plants are autotrophic (can produce their own food via photosynthesis), while fungi are heterotrophic (obtain food from other sources). Fungi have filamentous bodies (hyphae), not tissues in the plant - like sense. Fungi have cell walls made of chitin, and plants have cell walls made of cellulose. Most fungi reproduce via spores (but this is not unique to fungi as some plants also reproduce via spores).

Answer:

Fungi have cell walls made of chitin, but plants have cell walls made of cellulose.
