Solution
The correct option is B Fungi
- Heterotrophic nutrition is achieved by digesting organic compounds. There are three main types of heterotrophic nutrition.
- Holozoic nutrition: Complex food is taken into the digestive system and broken down into small pieces to be absorbed. This process consists of 5 stages, ingestion, digestion, absorption, assimilation, and egestion.
- Saprotrophic: Organisms feed on dead organic remains of other organisms.
- Parasitism: Organisms getting food from other living organisms (the host), with the host receiving some kind of illness from the parasite.
- As Fungi shows all three patterns of nutrition they are a perfect example of heterotrophic nutrition.
- Therefore, the correct answer is option B.
