Solution

The correct option is B Fungi
Fungi are eukaryotes that lack chlorophyll and are heterotrophic. The body structure of fungi is unique. It is composed of branched and filamentous hyphae, which form a net-like structure known as mycelium. The hyphae have a thin, rigid wall made up chiefly of chitin, a nitrogen-containing polysaccharide. Hence, option B is the correct answer.
