Answer:

Fungi lack chlorophyll.

Step-by-step explanation:

Plants are autotrophs i.e. they can make their own food by using carbon dioxide and sunlight as the source of energy in the presence of chlorophyll. Oxygen is released as the by product during this process of photosynthesis. Fungi on the other hand are heterotrophs. They lack chlorophyll and depend on other organisms to support themselves. Both plants and fungi have cell wall but plants contain cellulose cells wall whereas fungi has chitinous cell wall.
