The characteristics of the kingdom Fungi include:
1. Cell wall – Fungi have cell walls made of chitin.
2. Heterotrophic – Fungi obtain their nutrients by absorbing organic matter from their environment, meaning they cannot make their own food (like plants do).
3. Multicellular or unicellular – Fungi can be multicellular (like molds and mushrooms) or unicellular (like yeasts).
4. Decomposer – Many fungi play a critical role as decomposers in ecosystems, breaking down dead organic material.
Prokaryotic is not a characteristic of fungi, as fungi are eukaryotic organisms.
So, the correct characteristics from your list are: cell wall, heterotrophic, multicellular or unicellular, and decomposer.
