    If you’re serious, I think you’re mistaken who’s making the statement. I’ve had conversations with humanity majors who made comments about mushrooms being plants despite the obvious fact that they don’t photosynthesize. Never mind that they breath oxygen in and release co2.

      Mushrooms were plants until the 70s, maybe they just had outdated textbooks in school.

      Some plants don’t photosynthesis either (e.g. Orobanchaceae). Its not the photosynthesis that makes the plant

    Then why is the mushroom (that we see) called the fruiting body?

    It’s obviously a fruit.
