Plants and Fungi are not different because they are exactly the same
B
Fungi are autotrophs and plants are heterotrophsFungis cell wall is made out of cellulose and the plants cell wall is not made out of cellulose
C
Fungi are heterotrophs and plants are autotrophsFungis cell wall is not made out of cellulose but plants cell wall is made out of cellulose
D
Fungi are heterotrophs and plants are autotrophs
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Plants are autotrophic organisms produce their own food. Fungi are heterotrophic organisms as they use external sources of food. Fungi do not produce their food as in plants and do not ingest their food as animals do, instead they absorb nutrients from their surroundings using hyphae that secrete digestive enzymes.

Detailed explanation-2: -Differences Between Plant Cells and Fungus Cells The cell wall of a fungus is made up of a three-part matrix of chitin, glucans, and proteins. The cell wall of a plant is usually made of cellulose, hemicelluloses, pectin, agar, and others.

Detailed explanation-3: -Although fungi have cell walls like plants, the cell walls are made of chitin instead of cellulose. Types of fungi include molds, yeasts, and mushrooms.

Detailed explanation-4: -Fungal cell walls Most true fungi have a cell wall consisting largely of chitin and other polysaccharides. True fungi do not have cellulose in their cell walls.
