Which of the following best explains a characteristic that differentiates fungi from animals? a) fungi can reproduce asexually, while animals cannot. b) fungi are heterotrophs, while animals are not. c) fungal cells are prokaryotic, while animal cells are eukaryotic. d) fungal cells have cell walls, while animal cells do not.

The right option is; D) Fungal cells have cell walls, while animal cells do not.

Fungi are eukaryotic, unicellular or multicellular organisms, typically having thick cell walls but no chlorophyll or plastids. The cell wall of fungal cells is rigid and is composed of chitin (complex polysaccharides) and glucans. Fungi are different from animals because fungal cells have cell walls while animal cells do not have cell walls.
