Answer:

1.Answer is = One of the main differences between plants and fungi is that fungi have chitin as a component of their cell walls instead of cellulose. Both chitin and cellulose are comprised of polysaccharide chains.

2. .Fungi and plants differ in many ways.First, plants use sunlight as an energy source and a carbon dioxide as a sole carbon source in a process called photosynthesis. Fungi, like animals, use premade organic compunds as both carbon and energy source. Hence, fungi do not have chloroplasts nor chlorophyll.

Although both fungi and plant cells have cell wall, it is quite different in structure and composition. While plant cell wall is composed of cellulose, cell wall in fungi is made from chitin and beta-glucan mollecules.

.Fungal cells grow differently than plant cells. They grow as filamentous structutres called hyphae which extend at their tips. Similar structures in some algae grow by repeated cellular division. Unlike plants, fungi do not form specific tissues, nor organs. Instead, branched network of hyphae forms mycelium in most fungal species.

Instead, branched network of hyphae forms mycelium in most fungal species.Fungi store glycogen as energy reserve, as animals do. Plants store starch.There are major differencies in fungal and plant reproduction. For example, fungi never produce fruits nor seeds.In the end, fungi and plants have different DNA sequences. Fungal DNA is more similar to those of animals than to plants.
