Correct answer
B. All fungi possess a purely cellulosic cell wall
Step-by-step solution
The cell wall of fungi is made up of chitin and polysaccharides. Chitin is the most abundant amino polysaccharide, a long-chain polymer of N-acetylglucosamine is a derivative of glucose occurring in nature, and is the building material that gives strength to the exoskeletons of crustaceans, insects, and the cell walls of fungi.
