Fungi: Characteristics of Fungi

The video tutorial explains the differences between plants and fungi, highlighting that plants are green due to chlorophyll and perform photosynthesis, while fungi are non-green, lack chlorophyll, and are heterotrophic. Fungi absorb nutrients from their environment. The video also covers the structural differences, noting that fungi cell walls are made of chitin, unlike plant cell walls made of cellulose. It discusses the diversity of fungi species and their forms, from unicellular yeasts to multicellular structures like mushrooms. The growth of fungi through hyphae and mycelium is also explained.
