Hello! are anthuriums considered as angiosperms?
Do fungi have photosynthesis? - May 19, 2006 at 12:05 pm #48647hiroParticipant
fungi should be hetero not atuotropic…
i rmb they don’t hv chloroplast or photosynthetic pigment, but they absorb others nutrients via external digestion… - May 25, 2006 at 10:38 pm #48977SU_reptileParticipantquote :are anthuriums considered as angiosperms?
Of course it is.

Genus: Anthurium
- Kingdom: Vegetabilia

I concur with reptile.
As for fungi being photosynthetic I think not because by definiton the kingdom fungi is a saprophyte. Meaning that they obtain energy and nutrients from dead and organic matter. - May 26, 2006 at 5:56 pm #49029MrMisteryParticipant
The deffinition of kingdom fungi is not saprophyte(and it’s not a deffinition either, it is more of a characteristic). It is heterotroph. They can me either saprophyte, parasites or can form symbiosis as lichens or michorizea

I hope I am allowed to ask that question…
I am wondering why you are not certain weather Anthurium sp. is angio- or gymnosperm? I mean what makes you think it might be a gymnosperm? For example when I was in secondary school I thought that every plant that has cones or similar structures are gymnosperms 😳 .
I think that answering such questions may dissipate lots of misunderstandings.
