Tammy · Answer 2

Answer: Fungi are able to reproduce asexually or sexually, while animals reproduce sexually.

Explanation:

Fungi are the saprophytic organisms which are dependent on dead matter for their nourishment needs. But animals are hetrotrophic which means they are dependent on other animals and plants for their food.

The fungal diversity range from single to multicellular organisms thus they use asexual to sexual mode of reproduction depending upon the complexity. The animal diversity is composed of multicellular organisms. Thus because of the complexity they only conduct sexual reproduction.
