    They look more like a fungus than a plant

      Is fungus differentiated from plants? Honest question, not a smartass one.

        The four kingdoms of eukaryotes are:

        • Animals
        • Plants
        • Fungi
        • Protists

        So, taxonomically, plants are as different from fungi as they are from animals.

        Above that is the domains of life:

        • Eukaryotes (all of the above)
        • Bacteria
        • Archaea

        Then above that:

        • Cellular life (all of the above)
        • Viruses
        • Viroids
        • Obelisks (Potentially. Just announced last month.)

          Wild. Thanks for the terminology. I’m about to go down a Google rabbit hole now.

          And then you got yer prions, which are just self-replicating proteins, and not considered living, but worth mentioning because they kinda act like it.

            They don’t self-replicate. They interact with well-folded versions of the protein. Causing them to unfold and aggregate into plaques.

              yeah, so they are similar to viruses in that they cant self-replicate because they need something very specific to attach onto to replicate.

              So that’s why they scream and beg for their lives while I’m cooking.

                Yes that’s what animals and mushrooms have in common.
