Answer:

A species refers to the group of similar organisms that can interbreed to produce a viable offspring. For example, <em>Homo sapiens </em>is a species of humans, <em>Panthera leo </em>refers to the species of lions et cetera.

In contrast, a population in ecology refers to the group of organisms of the same species living in a particular area. For example, the deer population in a forest, human population in a town et cetera.

For example, <em>Aptenodytes patagonicus </em>refers to a species of penguins but number of penguins of the same species living in a particular area would make up a penguin population of that area.

Lignin and cellulose provide rigidity to the cell walls of plants. But in most fungi, chitin performs this role. Why is it logic
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

Fungi most fungi produce cellulases.

Explanation:

Fungi are eukaryotic microorganisms, however unlike other eukaryotes. Their cell wall is made up of chitin instead of cellulose.

Chitin is a fibrous polysaccharide found in the exoskeleton of arthropods and the cell wall of fungi.  where as cellulose is also a polysaccharide which is an important structural component of plant cell wall.

Since fungi are saprophytic they produce enzymes such as cellulases that will help in breakdown of cellulose for food.

They cannot have a cell wall made of cellulose.
