Can you please help me with this? Thank you!! :)

This organism attached is sold in stores like so: the label states it needs no air, water, light, or food. Don't hold your breath waiting for it to grow because it's dead. The living organism is in the kingdom Animalia. All of the following are true about it except? A. it ingests food B. it is motile C. it lacks cell walls D. it photosynthesizes ***I think it's D, but I'm not 100% sure... what do you think? :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I got it!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

This plant is Pinus plant! And that organism that lives on that plant its ''fungi'' And fungi doesn't ingest food it absorbs food! We human ingests food! This is what I figured out! But let me know the correct answer when you get!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay, will do! thank you!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If the organism belongs under the Kindgom Animalia, then it's an animal. And animals don't use photosynthesis. I'm assuming it doesn't need water, light, or food....because it's dead. So yeah, I think you've got the right answer there. The picture though is another thing. I've never seen any animal like that.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That question made me think too much then I gave that answer lol Now I think I was totally incorrect :c

OpenStudy (anonymous):

haha okay, so its actually D. it photosynthesizes? @InYourHead :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah, if it were an animal, then there's no way it would photosynthesize. So D would be the false choice that we're looking for.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's just that the picture that you posted doesn't look anything like an animal. That's why I'm confused.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

haha yeahhh lol i thought it was a plant but the question said that it was an animal so it was quite confusing lol.. thanks for your help guys! :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

just a quick question though.. if it were a plant, not an animal, would any of those statements be false?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hmm then I would say ''A'' Plants donot ingest food As far as I know!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

While some plants are motile! And some lack cellwalls!
