Plants :   - multicellular  organisms  - cells contain chloroplasts  - are able to carry out photosynthesis  - cells have cellulose cell walls  - store carbohydrates as starch  or sucrose  - examples include: flowering plants, such as a cereal (eg. maize), and a herbaceous legume (eg. peas or beans).        Animals:   - multicellular  organisms  - cells do not contain chloroplasts  - not able  to carry out photosynthesis  - no  cell walls  - store carbohydrate as glycogen  - examples: mammals (eg. humans) and insects (eg. housefly and mosquito).       Fungi:   -  not  able to carry out photosynthesis  - their body is usually organised into a mycelium  made from thread-like structures called hyphae , which contain many nuclei  - some examples are single-celled  - their cells have walls made of chitin  - they feed by extracellular secretion of digestive enzymes onto food material and absorption of the organic products ; this is known as saprotrophic nutrition  - t...
