What do fungi lack which makes it impossible for them to use photosynthesis?

• Correct Answer: chlorophyll
• roots
• ammonia
• sodium

Explanation: Fungi lack chlorophyll, so they cannot make food by photosynthesis as plants can. Instead, they are heterotrophs, like animals. But they don’t have a mouth or teeth. So how do fungi “eat”? They get their nutrition by absorbing organic compounds from other organisms. The other organisms may be dead or alive, depending on the fungus.
