| importance of bacteria | cheese and yogurts, transgenic plants, bioremediation, mining metal ore |
| Bad things of bacteria | a pathogen that is 1/2 of human disease |
| bad things of bacteris | endo and exo toxins |
| kingdom fungi | molds, rusts, smuts, mushrooms, yeasts, lichens, mychorrhizae |
| general characteristics of fungi | Eukaryotic, heterotrophic, absorptive, secrete enzyme, break down OM, cell walls made of chitin, mostly multicellular, non motile, evolved rom aquatic, unicellular, flagellated protist |
| hyphae | tubular cells, cell walls wit chitin |
| mycelium | network of hyphae, infiltrate food source max SA |
| plasmogamy | fusion of cytoplasm (fungi sex) |
| karyogamy | fusion of 22 nuclei (fungi sex) |

| phylum zygomycota (fungi) | molds for breads fruits, philobus aiming sporangia |
| phylum glomeromycota (fungi) | ,arbuscular, mycorrhizae, (90% of plants) |
| Phylum Ascomycota (fungi) | marine, fresh water, terrestrial, produce spores in sac like ascu, truffle morels, plant pathogens, yeast, athletes foot, ergot, lichens |
| Phylum Basidomycota (fungi) | mushrooms, puffballs, shelf fungi, mycorrhizae, rustsm smuts, decomposers- wood |
| importance of fungi | bakers yeast, brewers yeast, decomposers, morels, truffles, cheeses (blue, roquefort), penicillin, mychorrhizae |
| bad things about fungi | plant pathogens, dutch elm disease, |
| mutualism (fungi) | mycorrhizae vs nutrients, |
| mutualism (fungi) | lichen/ algae cyanobacteria. PS N-fixing |
| Mutualism (fungi) | animal fungi- guts of grazing animals |
| General characteristics of protists | Eukaryotic, uicellular-extremly specialized, habitats-world wide, damp to aquatics, reprodroduction- most asexual, nutrition- autotroph, hetertroph, mixotroph, movement- flagellates, cillates, amoebas, sporazoan, taxonomic organization. |
| monophyletic group | common ancestor, all descendants |
| paraphyletic group | common ancestor, some but not all descendants |
| polyphyletic group | 2 or more ancestors |
| Excavata | lack plastids, modified mitochondria, anaerobic flagella |
