- There is no embryonic stage for fungi.
- A fungus develops from spores, and are both sexual and asexual.
- Though most of the fungi are single cellular, most of the fungi species grow as multi-cellular filaments called hyphae. The hyphae form a mycelium.
- Other fungi are parasites and obtain their nutrients from living host.
- Eukaryotic
- non - vascular organisms
