Answer:

Chitin

Explanation:

The fungal cell wall is a complex and flexible structure composed basically of chitin, α- and β- linked glucans, glycoproteins, and pigments.

The chitin adds rigidity and structural support to the thin cell walls of the fungus, and makes fresh mushrooms crisp. Chitin is a polysaccharide due to which the long, fibrous cell walls of the fungus can penetrate plants and animals, for breaking them down and extracting nutrients.

Answer:

Fungi are saprophytes in nature. They tend to live on dead organisms. They do not possess chlorophyll. Their cell wall is made up of chitin.
