Term | Definition |
---|---|
Extracellular digestion | Digestion that takes place outside of the cell. |
Rhizoids hypha | Hypha that is Imbedded in the materiel upon which the fungus grows |
Stolon | Aerial hypha that asexually reproduce to make more filaments. |
Fermentation | Anaerobic breakdown of sugars into the smaller molecules. |
Hypha | A filament of fungal cells. |
Saprophytic | Feeding on the remains of dead organisms. |
Parasitic | Feeding on the living host |
Chitin | A chemical that provides both toughness and flexibility. |
Rhizoids hypha | Are responsible for supporting the fungus and digesting food. |
Aerial hypha | Is not imbedded in the material upon which the fungus grows. |
Sporophore | Specialized aerial hypha that produces spores. |
Basidomycota | Form sexual spores on clublike basida. |
Ascomycota | Form sexual spores in saclike asci. |
Zygomycota | Form sexual spores where hypha fuse. |
Chytridiomycota | Form spores with flagella. |
Deuteromycota | Fungi with no known method of sexual reproduction. |
Myxomycota | Fungi that look like Protozoa for much of their lives. |
Veins | Thin membrane to protect the spores until the mushroom is mature. |
Cap | To protect the gills and spores. |
Gills | Are to hold the spores, the microscopic âseedsâ of the mushroom. |
Stem | To attach the important stuff-for the plants, or fungus, to reproduce parts of growth. |
Bread mold #1: | Asexually reproduce whenâs stolon lengthens and forms new filaments. |
Bread mold #2: | Asexual reproduction involves the production of sporangia that release spores. |
Bread mold #3: | Hypha can fuse together sexually reproduce to form a zygosphore that can then mature into another fungus. |
Symbiotic | Form between fungi and plant relationship. |
