Which characteristic makes fungi similar to plants?
both fungi and plants are autotrophic organisms.
both fungi and plants have vascular tissue.
both fungi and plants have cell walls of chitin.
both fungi and plants can grow in soil.

The answer is D. Both fungi and plants can grow in soil.

Through the process of elimination:
- Plants are autotrophic organisms while fungi are heterotrophic organisms.
- Plants have vascular tissue, and fungi don't.
- Fungi are the only organisms that have cell walls made of chitin.
Therefore, the correct choice is that both fungi and plants can grow in soil.

they each offer a fresh glut of resources to the organisms that can arrive and exploit them. as individuals and new species continue to appear, they actively and passively alter the environment. competition for shared resources increases, local abiotic and biotic conditions shift, and the relative abundances of species change accordingly. the process is called ecological succession, and it is one of the earliest and most well-known concepts in ecology.
