Answer:

Fungi and gecko share the characteristic of being a heterotrophic organism, it means that they have a nutrition in which the organic matter they consume is transformed into nutrients and they need other organism for this. On the other hand, trees are autotrophic, they are capable of transforming inorganic matter into organic. They can synthesize all the essential substances for theirs metabolism.
