Fungi are known as mushrooms and molds but they are also the cause of many diseases too. There are over 75,000 species of fungi in the world and probably millions more we have to discover. Mushrooms, mold on food, some diseases are only some type of fungi in this world. Since fungi don't have mouths they absorb nutrients from the organic material on which they live on. Fungi don't have stomachs so they must digest their food before it can pass through the cell wall into the hyphae. Fungi have evolved to use alot of different types of items as food. Some live off dead organic materials like leaves. Some fungi cause diseases by using living organisms for food. These fungi infect plants, animals and even other fungi! Athlete's foot and ringworm are two diseases fungi cause on humans and animals! Everyday you probably use fungal products without even realizing! People eat mushrooms of all shapes, sizes and colors. Yeasts are used in making bread, wine, beer and solvents. Some drugs made from fungi cure diseases and stop the rejection of transplanted hearts and other organs.Mushrooms, toadstools, etc. are only the "fruiting bodies" of fungi, which produce spores for reproduction. Most of the fungus is actually under the ground, which they are tiny threads called hyphae. There are many types of toxic fungi. Fungal poisoning is called "mycetism".
Hope I helped you!

Mushrooms (fungi) grow towards light. Whenever a plant dies, fungi recycle them, turning the dead plant into soil. Fungi is used in many ways: preserving foods, medicine, food and absorbing pesticides (there are other ways fungi is used, too). Everytime you breathe you are inhaling fungi spores.
Fungi are a diverse group of organisms that can be found in various habitats, from soil to trees to human skin. They play key roles in decomposition, nutrient cycling, and symbiotic relationships with plants. Some fungi are pathogenic to animals and plants, while others are used in food production (e.g., yeast in baking) and the production of antibiotics.

Fungi are a separate kingdom of organisms, distinct from plants and animals, and play essential roles in ecosystem processes. Fungi are crucial for nutrient cycling as decomposers, breaking down organic matter into simpler forms that can be used by other organisms. Some fungi form symbiotic relationships with plants, providing benefits such as increased nutrient uptake, which is important for the health of both the fungi and the plants.
Fungi belong to the Kingdom Fungi.
Yeast is a type of fungi called sac fungi (Ascomycota), while truffles belong to the group of fungi known as sac fungi (Ascomycota) as well.
a. sac fungi
Kingdom mycota or fungi contains chitin in cell wall . fungi are heterotrophic but they absorb food .
there are pore fungi and

No, fungi is not unicellular. Fungi is multicellular

Fungi are neither plants or animals, they are fungi. Once again, fungi are neither invertebrates or vertebrates, they are fungi.
Fungi belong to the Kingdom Fungi.
Fungi are... Fungi. The four kingdoms of the Eukarya domain are: Protists, Plantae, Animalia, and Fungi. It is strange that people would even consider the fact that Fungi and Plants are in the same kingdom. For instance: Plants are photosynthesizers; they make their food off of the sunlight provided by the sun. Fungi are decomposers; they feed off of decaying plant and animal life they find. A plant's cell structure is also almost completely different than a fungus's. In addition, Plants start life in seed form, Fungi do not. When you add up all of the facts, the only characteristic of these two Eukaryotes that even suggests that they share the same kingdom is that they are both stationary. Nothing else.
Fungi are plants. Fungi produce their own food through photosynthesis. Fungi are important decomposers in ecosystems. Fungi reproduce through spores.
