About the Fungi Session
A fungus is any member of the eukaryotic group of organisms, which also includes more well-known mushrooms and microbes like yeast and mould. Separate from the other eukaryotic kingdoms, which according to one conventional classification include Plantae, Animalia, Protozoa, and Chromista, these creatures are categorised as a kingdom. Chitin in their cell walls distinguishes fungus from plants, bacteria, and certain protists, putting them in a distinct kingdom. Like mammals, fungi consume dissolved molecules by absorbing them; they normally do this by releasing digestive enzymes into their surroundings. Not all fungi photosynthesize. With the exception of spores, which may move through the water or air, all living things move through growing. The main decomposers in ecological systems are fungi.
