Fungi are autotrophic; plants are heterotrophic.
Fungi are unicellular; plants are multicellular.
Fungi absorb nutrients; plants make food using sunlight.
Fungi have no DNA; plants do.

Both are eukaryotic, but Archaea live in milder environments.
Both are prokaryotic, but Archaea tend to live in extreme environments.
Both have a nucleus, but Bacteria are smaller.
Bacteria are multicellular, but Archaea are unicellular.
A student argues that yeast should be placed in the kingdom Plantae because it has a cell wall. What is the best argument against this claim?

Yeast does not have DNA like plants do.
Yeast is multicellular, while plants are not.
Yeast does not perform photosynthesis and is actually a fungus.
Yeast is a type of protist, not a plant.
