The cells have a nucleus, some have chloroplasts and some dont Nutrients are acquired by various mechanims like photosynthesis, ingestion or both.

Plantae: These are multicellular organisms th cells of which have chloroplast and cell walls. Nutrients are aqquired by photosynthesis. They are non motile( gamates may be motile).

Fungi: Organisms in this kingdom are multicellular or unicellular and have a cell wall , organelles but no chloroplast. They do not have locomotive organs. They obtain nutrients by absorption. They are mostly saprophytic. Fungi can range from microscopic sizes to large macroscopic mushrooms.
