The question seems to be wrong
*Mucor and Rhizopus are two different organisms in the same kingdom...hence, there is nothing like mucor of rhizopus
*B and C are both correct
A fungus cannot be a plant if it does not possess chlorophyll nor store carbohydrate as starch
A fungus does not possess a cellulose cell wall,it possesses a chitin cell wall same way bacteria and cyanophyta possess polysaccharide cell wall instead of cellulose cell wall

The statement that is not true for Mucor or Rhizopus is:

B. Is a plant

Mucor and Rhizopus are fungi, not plants. They belong to the kingdom Fungi and are commonly found growing on moist dead organic matter. They lack chlorophyll and reproduce as*xually through spores. Their cell walls are made of chitin, not cellulose, which is characteristic of plants.

I think the correct answer is D because mucor actually have to ways of reproduction
1. they reproduce s*xually by producing spore not as*xually
2. they reproduce as*xually through sporangia
