  1. Absorptive heterotrophic nutrition is exhibited by
    1. Algae
    2. Fungi
    3. Bryophytes
    4. Pteridophytes
Correct Option: B

Fungi are nutritionally saprophytes, which grow on dead and decaying matter. They secrete enzyme to the external medium where digestion takes place and digested food is absorbed by the body surface. They convert complex organic constituents of dead body into simple soluble forms. That is why fungi are regarded as decomposers.
