Question
Answer
general characteristics of fungi part 1   important as pathogens, decay organisims, food, and in industrial processes such as brewing, wine and cheesemaking; have cell walls of chitin (a polysaccharide); heterotrophic; single celled or filamentous; non motile  
🗑
general characteristics of fungi part 2   usually have filamentous structure called hyphae; all are Gram positive; all produce spores  
🗑
mycology   study of fungi  
🗑
mycosis   any disease caused by a fungus  
🗑
function of fungal spores   1. growth and survival 2. long-distance dispersal (can be pushed in different habitats by water and wind)3. creating new genetic combinations (sexual spores only)  
🗑
septate hyphae   have cross walls or septals that make a division between cells  
🗑
aseptate hyphae   have a chain of cells with no cross wall  
🗑
mycelium   a mass of hyphae (a whole fungus) visible to the naked eye  
🗑
mold   a fungus that grows as a mass of filamentous hyphae  
🗑
yeast   a fungus that grows as single, oval cells they reproduce by budding (an unequal cell division) or by asexual spores  
🗑
budding   an unequal cell division (how yeasts reproduce)  
🗑
dimorphism   having two forms  
🗑
general characteristics of algae   Kingdom Protista; have cell walls; single or multicellular; autotrophic (photosynthetic); no specialized tissues; make the most of the atmospheric oxygen; live only in water and damp places  
🗑
most important type of algae for this class and why   red algae (agar source) because it is the solidifying agent for our medium in lab  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
