Which of the following statements does not describe a way in which fungi differ from plants?
a. fungi have filamentous bodies
b. fungi have nuclear mitosis
c. fungi are heterotrophic
d. fungi have cell walls made of cellulose

d. fungi have cell walls made of cellulose

Explanation:

Fungi are the eukaryotic organisms just like plants. But the plants are the producers that is they are capable of producing their own food by the process of photosynthesis but the fungi are saprophytes which means they are dependent upon dead and decaying organic matter for their food and energy requirements.

The cell walls of fungi are made up of chitin not cellulose. Both are the hard rigid polysaccharides which provides the structural support and rigidity to the cell wall. Thus the statement the fungi have cell walls made of cellulose does not describe a way which differ fungi from plants.

cells use diffusion to get substances in and out of themselves. that diffusion will occur across the cell membrane or the outer covering of the cell. because we are talking about the surface of the cell, surface area and volume are  important factors here. as a cell increases in size, its surface area and volume increase as well.  we call that the surface area to volume ratio (sa: vol).  but the catch is that  volume increases at a greater rate than surface  area. in other words, as a cell gets bigger, the sa: vol gets smaller. so a really small cell like bacteria is mostly cell membrane (surface) with very little contents (volume). a really big cell like an egg, is mostly insides with a super thin membrane. so what ends up happening is that the cell cannot efficiently diffuse all of the stuff it needs in/out to survive. therefore cell size is limited to about 100mm. so how do we make organisms bigger than 100mm? cells divide! by dividing and becoming multicellular, organisms are able to grow!   check out the diagrams i attached to see the effect of sa: vol. i hope this ! good luck!
