Compare the organisms in the table. what plantlike characteristic does a methanogen share with organisms in the kingdom plantae?
autotrophic photosynthesizing multicellular prokaryotic blue-green algae fern grass methanogen pawpaw blue-green algae fern grass pawpaw fern mushroom puffball grass pawpaw blue-green algae methanogen plants and methanogens use the sun to produce their own food. plants and methanogens are both eukaryotic, multicellular organisms. plants and methanogens produce food using heat from volcanic vents. plants and methanogens are both capable of producing their own food.
Plantlike and methanogen organisms share som similar characteristics, for instance, can both produce their own and can process their made food into energy for different cellular processes such as cell division, repair and maintenance.
Despite this similarity though, the difference lies with the source of energy that get to produce the food. Plantlike organisms use sunlight and UV rays to photosynthesize. Whereas, methanogens use methane where sunlight is not present.
