Solution

The correct option is B

False


The kingdom fungi include multicellular and saprophytic organisms. They secrete digestive enzymes on their food (which is dead and decaying matter) and absorb the digested food. Hence, they are heterotrophic, i.e. they are dependent of other organisms for food. Autotrophic organisms produce their own food.
