Stored food in fungi :

Stored food in fungi :
A Starch
B Proteins
C Glycogen
D Chitin

Detailed Solution

Fungi store their reserve food as glycogen (and oil droplets), like animals.
Chitin is a structural component of their cell walls, not a food reserve. Starch is the reserve food of green plants.
So the stored food in fungi is glycogen.
