Question

how do saprophytes get their food. give one example​

Answer 1

Saprotrophs are the plants that obtain their nutrition from dead and decaying organic matter. Saprotrophs secrete digestive juices onto dead and decaying matter to dissolve it and then absorb nutrients from it. Enzymes are secreted onto the dead organism to digest the large molecules so digestion is external.

Answer 2

Hi friend!

Saprophytes absorb nutrition from dead and decomposing matter. For example mushrooms are found growing dead bark of trees.
