Your answer would be a organism in the fungi kingdom.

You can think of these as mushrooms and yeasts, as well as molds.

They get their food from the environment, absorbing it through digestive enzymes, because they cannot move around. They produce spores to reproduce, which grow on the mother plant, and then once mature enough, go off seeking new lands.
