A student is using a Venn Diagram to communicate understanding of the similarities and differences between fungi and animals. The student placed key characteristics in each circle and classmates are asked to review the work. Qurdtion options:   “You should remove ‘has a cell wall’ because neither fungi nor animals have a cell wall.   “You need to move the term heterotroph to the ‘animals’ circle because fungi can be heterotrophic or autotrophic.”   “You have all of the information correct.”   “All animals only reproduce sexually so you need to move ‘may reproduce sexually or asexually ‘to fungi only.”

Fungi

Fungi can be single-celled or complex multicellular creatures. They are found in pretty much any natural surroundings; however, they generally live on the land, principally in soil or plant material instead of in the ocean or water. Fungi are the members of the group called the decomposers that live off dead and decaying matters. Fungi assume a significant part in the carbon cycle and its different components. They act as a parasite by causing illnesses like rusts, scabs, or ulcers. In crops, contagious illnesses can prompt critical money-related misfortune for the rancher. An exceptionally modest number of growths cause illnesses in creatures. In people, these incorporate skin illnesses such as competitors' feet, ringworm, and thrush.
