Answer:

C. Sucking up nutrients made by other organisms.

Step-by-step explanation:

Fungi (singular: fungus) are a kingdom of usually multicellular eukaryotic organisms that are heterotrophs (cannot make their own food) and have important roles in nutrient cycling in an ecosystem.

It could be other plants or animals where they get a great place to source their food.

During this time, the fungi kind of hibernates until they get a suitable and beneficial place they can transfer to.

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Fungi are heterotrophic.

Fungi are not able to ingest their food like animals do, nor can they manufacture their own food the way plants do. Instead, fungi feed by absorption of nutrients from the environment around them. Most fungi are saprophytes, feeding on dead or decaying material.
