Answer 1

(A) The structure is the cell wall. The cell wall protects the cell from damage. It is also there to make the cell strong, to keep its shape.

(B) Structure Z is a chloroplast. Chloroplasts work to convert light energy of the Sun and turn it in to sugars that can be used by the cells. This process is also called photosynthesis.

(C) Since chloroplasts create sugar for a plant cell, fungi has mitochondria. Fungi uses mitochondria which create ATP (also know as Adenosine Triphosphate) which is energy. Therefore, fungi doesn’t need chloroplasts.

Answer 2

Y- Cell membrane and holds the cell together
Z- Chloroplast, makes sugar from CO2, water, and the sun

Fungi don't need chloroplasts, as they behave like heterotrophs, feeding on detritus (dead stuff).
