Saprophytes are always plants, usually fungi of some sort, either bacteria, yeasts, molds, or mushrooms. A few seed plants are sapro- phytes. See Figure 325. These sapro- phytes lack chlorophyll and, therefore, are unable to manufacture food as green plants do. Their method of nutrition is called saprophytism (sap'-row-fight- ism). A relationship of benefit to both or- ganisms. Certain protozoa spend their lives within the intestine of the termite;.
