Fungi  used to be considered plants, but as time and knowledge grew it was realized that fungi were a unique “in betweener” to both plants and animals and they were given their own separate kingdom. They grow out of the soil and have rigid cell walls like plants. But like animals, they have chitin in their cell walls, instead of lignin, and store reserve food as glycogen (Chitin is the polysaccharide that gives hardness to the external skeletons of lobsters and insects). Also like animals, they lack chlorophyll and are heterotrophic, releasing digestive enzymes into their surroundings and absorbing nutrients back. Familiar representatives include the edible mushrooms, molds, mildews, yeasts, and the plant pathogens, smuts and rusts.

Some fungi are saprobes (saprophytes), as important in decomposition as the bacteria; others are symbiotrophs, living in symbiotic association with plants, animals, protists and cyanobacteria. Well known symbioses are: lichens that are associations of fungi and green algae or cyanobacteria; mycorrhizae, associations of fungi and plant roots; and endophytes, fungi and plant leaves and stems. Some fungi are parasites (fungal pathogens) and responsible for diseases of both plants and animals. Complex life cycles involving one or more hosts have developed between fungal pathogens and their hosts.

Because there cell wall is made up of chitin not cellulose and they haven't any pigment which take part in photosynthesis
