Question

Which of the following groups of organisms are ecologically similiar?

• A. Producer protists and consumer protists
• B. Monerans and producer protists
• C. Consumer protists and fungi
• D. Monerans and fungi

Answer 1

The correct option is C Consumer protists and fungi

• Protists are often classified based on how similar they are to other eukaryotes: animals, plants, and fungi.
  
• Fungus-like protists are molds. They are absorptive feeders on decaying organic matter. They resemble fungi, and they reproduce with spores as fungi do. Examples of fungus-like protists include slime molds and water molds.
  

So, the correct answer is 'Consumer protists and fungi'.
