Detailed explanation-1: -All fungi are heterotrophic, which means that they get the energy they need to live from other organisms. Like animals, fungi extract the energy stored in the bonds of organic compounds such as sugar and protein from living or dead organisms.
Detailed explanation-2: -Fungi get their food by absorbing organic substances from their surroundings. Fungi are heterotrophic, i.e, their metabolism and nourishment rely completely on carbon from other species.
Detailed explanation-3: -Fungi are heterotrophic. Fungi are not able to ingest their food like animals do, nor can they manufacture their own food the way plants do. Instead, fungi feed by absorption of nutrients from the environment around them. They accomplish this by growing through and within the substrate on which they are feeding.
