Which characteristic best indicates that the organism in question is a fungus not a plant
Lelu [443]

There are quite a few differences that could count for this between plants and fungi. The first one would be the best characteristic:

1. Plants can make their own food via photosynthesis; fungi are obligated to get their food elsewhere so they can either be parasites and live off another living thing or they decompose matter to gain their energy.

2. So..fungi don't have chlorophyll...but plants do!

3. Plants reproduce through pollen and seeds - fungi make spores

4. Plant cell walls have cellulose whereas fungal cell walls have chitin.

5. Plants have roots, stems and leaves; fungi produce filaments which attach to a host (think of fungi you see growing on trees in the forest!)

John and Marissa purchase their first home for $120,000. They must put 15 percent down on the purchase price as a down payment.
Olenka [21]

Answer:

Downpayment: 15% of original price

Original price: $120,000

15% of 120,000 = \frac{15}{100} × 120,000

                          = $18,000

Thus, the downpayment is $18,000.
