TaigaPrimitive fungi are those that lack certain complex structures and reproductive mechanisms found in more advanced fungi. These may include fungi with simple, non-septate hyphae or fungi that reproduce asexually through simple spore production. Examples of primitive fungi include chytrids and zygomycetes.

Which two groups are closely related evolutionarily plants and animals plants and fungi fungi and animals?
fungi & animals
Why are plants and fungi placed in separate kingdoms?
Plants have chlorophyll and make energy from light; fungi don't.
How is fungi same to plants?
Fungi is part of the Plant Kingdom.
What is the most primitive division of plants they have no vascular system?
Bryophytes are the most primitive division of plants that lack a vascular system. This group includes mosses, liverworts, and hornworts. They rely on diffusion to transport water and nutrients within the plant.
How are fungi plants different from plants?
Fungi do not use photosynthesis. Also, fungi don't have leaves and roots. Finally, unlike plants, the cell walls of fungi contain chitin.Fungi and plants are in the same domain (Eukarya), but are separate kingdoms. Plants are autotrophs (they make their own food through chemosynthesis or photosynthesis), while fungi are heterotrophs (more specifically they are either parasites or saprobes). Other differences are also present in structure (for example, fungi cell walls are made of chitin while plants' cell walls are made of cellulose), specialization, etc.
