Answer:
Correct option - (a)
The autotrophic mode of nutrition is not found in fungi.
Explanation:
Fungi are heterotrophs in nature. They depend on other organisms to gain their nutrition. They can either be saprophytic or parasitic in nature.
Saprophytic nutrition is a process where the organism completely depends on dead and decaying organisms as a part of their nutritional gaining. Fungi can grow over dead leaves, animals, or fallen woods.
Parasitic nutrition is a process in which the organism depends upon live organisms and their cells to gain nutrition. Rusts and mildews are some common parasitic fungi.
Fungi lack the substances that are used for photosynthesis. Thus, fungi cannot be autotrophic in nature. They can only be heterotrophic.
So, option (a) is the correct answer.
