Are mushrooms plants?
Mushrooms are NOT plants - they’re fungi! Fungi are different from both plants and animals. Like plants, they don’t move on their own. But while most plants get energy from the sun, fungi get energy by eating other organisms, like animals. Most fungi are detritivores, meaning they eat things that are already dead, like fallen down trees. That makes fungi really important - they’re what clear away all the dead plants from the ground.
