Model Answer

Fungi such as bread mould and mushrooms break down food material outside their body and then absorb it.

Explanation

The passage in section 5.2.2 explicitly lists fungi — bread moulds, yeast, and mushrooms — as examples of organisms that digest food externally (saprotrophic/extracellular digestion) and then absorb it. Name any two from this list. Do not write Amoeba or Paramoecium (they digest internally).
