B) fungi

Explanation:

Fungi

Most of the fungi can be seen with naked eye.

All the fungi are heterotrophs, as they get their food and energy by other organic substance.

Fungi have the highest biomass in the surface soil. In the depth range of 0 to 15 centimeters its biomass is 100 to 1500 grams per meter square.
