A. Like plants, they carry out photosynthesis
B. Like some prokaryotes, they are autotrophs
C. Like animals, they lack cell walls
D. Like protists, they are eukaryotic<--(My Answer)
I think you right,I'm not sure but I remember answering a question like this and I think it is D.
To determine which statement is true of fungi, let's evaluate each option:
A. Like plants, they carry out photosynthesis:
This statement is incorrect. Unlike plants, fungi do not carry out photosynthesis. They do not have chloroplasts or any other pigment for photosynthesis.
B. Like some prokaryotes, they are autotrophs:
This statement is also incorrect. Fungi are not autotrophs. They are heterotrophs, meaning they obtain their nutrients by obtaining organic matter from their environment.
C. Like animals, they lack cell walls:
This statement is also incorrect. Fungi have cell walls, although their cell walls are made of chitin, a different material compared to the cellulose found in plant cell walls.
D. Like protists, they are eukaryotic:
This statement is true. Fungi are indeed eukaryotic organisms. They are classified in the kingdom Fungi, which is one of the five eukaryotic kingdoms.
Therefore, the correct answer is D. Like protists, they are eukaryotic.
