Which characteristic distinguishes fungal cells from plant cells

Biology
1 answer:
sertanlavr [38]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: Feeding behaviors, trophic levels, cell wall composition, and their organelles distinguish fungi from plants.

Explanation:

While plants and fungi are both eukaryotes, they differ in terms of feeding behaviors, trophic levels, cell wall composition, and their organelles.

  • Cell walls: both are non-chain polysaccharides (sugars) that function as structural support; yet fungal cell walls are composed of chitin while plant cell walls are made up of cellulose

  • Feeding: fungi secrete compounds that digest their food sources before they can take in nutrients and they store food as <em>glycogen; </em>while plants do not require a means of pre-digesting food and store their food as <em>starch.</em>

  • Organelles: plant cells contain <em>chloroplasts</em>, small green structures with chlorophyll that causes their characteristic coloration. Unlike plants, fungi do not photosynthesize to make their own food or contain chloroplasts.

  • Trophic level: are strictly <em>heterotrophs or decomposers, </em>depending on other organisms for survival. Their chloroplasts enable them to carry out photosynthesis, thus they are <em>autotrophs or producers. </em>

15 Pts. Will give brainliest if correct.
Margarita [4]

Answer:

interbreeding occurs

Explanation:

The speciation is a process through which from one common ancestor, two or more different species occur. This can happen because of multiple different factors. One of the factors is that the populations should be isolated geographically. This leads to limited gene pool, and also no interaction with the rest of the population, while in meantime developing traits that are suitable for the particular environment. One of the easiest ways to see of two animals are belonging to different species is can they produce fertile offspring. If the answer is no, then that means that they have diverged enough to be considered as different species. One thing that doesn't contribute to speciation is the interbreeding, as it is a process that occurs within the population, and it is a common process through which the traits of the population are passed on to the next generation.
