What are chloroplasts and what do they do?
They are green pigment which trap light energy for photosynthesis
3 of 30
What type of cell walls do plants have?

What do plants store carbohydrates as?
Starch or sucrose
5 of 30
What cellular structure do animals have?
Multicellular
6 of 30
Are animals able to carry out photosynthesis and why?
No because their cells do not contain chloroplasts

Fungi feed by saprotrophic nutrition...what is saprotrophic nutrition?
It is where they feed by extracellular secretion of digestive enzymes onto food material and absorption of the organic products.
15 of 30
What do Fungi store carbohydrates as?
Glycogen ( same as animals )
16 of 30
