Question

homework - cladograms and phylogenic trees
how would you describe the organism?
eukaryotic autotroph
eukaryotic heterotroph
prokaryotic autotroph
prokaryotic heterotroph

Explanation:

Mushrooms are fungi. Fungi are eukaryotes (have a nucleus and membrane - bound organelles). They are heterotrophs as they obtain nutrients by absorbing organic matter from their environment (unlike autotrophs which produce their own food, e.g., through photosynthesis). Prokaryotes (like bacteria) lack a nucleus and membrane - bound organelles.

Answer:

eukaryotic heterotroph
