Homework Answers
| 1. | Fungi | plants |
| Eukaryotic | Yes | Yes |
| Perform photosynthesis | No | Yes |
| The cell contains chloroplast | No | Yes |
| Heterotrophs | Yes | No |
Explanation:
The fungi and plants both are eukaryotic in nature. They contain a nucleolus and double membrane-bounded cell organelle. The Ribosomes are 80S type.
Fungi do not contain chloroplasts so they cannot make their own food by photosynthesis. But the plants contain chloroplast so they can make their own food by photosynthesis.
Fungi are heterotrophic in nature because they couldn't perform photosynthesis. So they depend on others for food. Actually, the fungi are saprophyte in nature.
The plants are autotrophic in nature because they perform photosynthesis.

3 . Difference
Between pollen and seed:
| Pollen | Seed |
| Pollen contains a male nucleus | Seed contains an embryo. |
| Pollen is haploid ( n) | Seed is diploid ( 2 n) |
| The size of the Pollen is smaller than the seed. | The size of the Seeds is larger than pollen. |

1. When you look at a pine or maple tree, the plant you see is a _____. 2. The Brazil nut tree, Bertholletia excels (n = 17), is native to tropical rain forests of South America. It is a hardwood tree that can grow to over 50 meters tall, is a source of high-quality lumber, and is a favorite nesting site for harpy eagles. As the rainy season ends, tough-walled fruits, each containing 8-25 seeds (Brazil nuts), fall to the...
