3QBioFungi

Third Quarter Biology 3 Long quiz1- Fungus reviewer

QuestionAnswer
Fungi are mostly _________________: organisms that derive nutrients from decaying organic matte saprobes or saprophytes
The body structures of fungi are of two types: multicellular filaments and unicellular (yeasts).
________ often grow and thrive in moist environments where there is abundant supply of soluble nutrients, such as sugars and amino acids Single-celled (unicellular) yeasts
Multicellular fungi have enhanced ability to absorb nutrients from their environment due to the presence of _____________________ hypha (plural hyphae)
_________________ consist of chitinous tubular cell walls that enclose the cell membrane and cytoplasm of the cells. Hyphae
The component __________ strengthens the cell walls and enhances absorption of nutrients from the surroundings chitin
Hyphae in fungi have two forms: septate hyphae and coenocytic (aseptate) hyphae
Septate hyphae are characterized by the presence of cross-walls called -________________ septa (singular septum)
____________ have pores that allow the flow of nutrients throughout the entire mycelium, increase the stability of a hypha, and preserve the rest of the hypha when one of its cells is injured septa
__________have a continuous cytoplasmic mass due to the absence or lack of septa The absence of septa in aseptate hypha allows a quick transport of nutrients throughout the entire hypha. Coencytic hyphae
___________ is an interwoven mass of fungal hyphae. mycelium
_________ infiltrates the food source, making a very efficient feeding by increasing the surface-to-volume ratio mycelium
Some fungi have specialized branching hyphae such as ________ that are used to exchange nutrients between fungi and their plant hosts arbuscules
mutually beneficial relationships or known as __________ between fungi and plant roots mycorrhizae
_______ improve the delivery of nutrients from the soil to the plants. In return, plants supply the fungi with organic nutrients such as carbohydrates Mycorrhizal fungi (fungi that form mycorrhizae)
Mycorrhizal fungi have two main types: ectomycorrhizal fungi and arbuscular mycorrhizal (endomycorrhizal) fungi
____________ fungi form a network of hyphae over the surface of the plant roots, Ectomycorrhizal
____________ fungi extend their hyphae through the cell wall of the plant roots arbuscular mycorrhizal
is a monophyletic group, spore-producing eukaryotic heterotrophs with chitinous cell walls. Kingdom Fungi
Fungi are classified into five phyla based on their sexual reproductive structures: : Chytridiomycota, Zygomycota, Glomeromycota, Ascomycota, and Basidiomycota.
are the earliest lineage (most primitive) of fungi Phylum Chytridiomycota (Chytrids)
Members of this phylum are the only fungi with flagellated spores and have coenocytic hyphae. Phylum Chytridiomycota (Chytrids)
They reproduce asexually by zoospores that are produced in zoosporangia. Phylum Chytridiomycota (Chytrids)
They are common in lakes, ponds, and soils Phylum Chytridiomycota (Chytrids)
Phylum: An example is Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis Phylum Chytridiomycota (Chytrids)
have coenocytic hyphae. Phylum Zygomycota (Zygomycetes) Phylum Glomeromycota (Glomeromycetes)
Members of this phylum are characterized by the presence of protective zygosporangium (plural, zygosporangia) as sexual stage, where zygotes produce haploid spores by meiosis Phylum Zygomycota (Zygomycetes)
They are commonly known as bread molds or common molds that grow on meat, cheese, bread Phylum Zygomycota (Zygomycetes)
The most common example of this Phylum is Rhizopus stolonifer Phylum Zygomycota (Zygomycetes)
[phylum] form arbuscular mycorrhizae with plants Phylum Glomeromycota (Glomeromycetes)
An example is Gigaspora margarita Phylum Glomeromycota (Glomeromycetes)
have septate hyphae and some yeasts Phylum Ascomycota (Ascomycetes)
Members of this phylum form saclike structures called asci (singular, ascus) that produce sexual spores, called ascospores Phylum Ascomycota (Ascomycetes)
They live in marine, freshwater, and terrestrial habitats. Some live with green algae or cyanobacteria in symbiotic associations called lichens. Phylum Ascomycota (Ascomycetes)
They are commonly known as sac fungi Phylum Ascomycota (Ascomycetes)
[phylum] An example is Talaromyces flavus Phylum Ascomycota (Ascomycetes)
have septate hyphae. Phylum Basidiomycota (Basidiomycetes)
Members of this phylum form club-shaped structures called basidia (singular, basidium) that produce sexual spores. Phylum Basidiomycota (Basidiomycetes)
They live in terrestrial habitats and are important decomposers of wood and other plant materials Phylum Basidiomycota (Basidiomycetes)
They are commonly known as club/cup fungi. Mushrooms are members of this phylum Phylum Basidiomycota (Basidiomycetes)
Fungi derive nutrients through ________ with the aid of digestive enzymes absorption
Fungi derive nutrients through absorption with the aid of ____________. digestive enzymes
__________________fungi have hyphae that enhance their ability to absorb nutrients from their environment. Multicellular
Phylum _________ has coenocytic hyphae and produce flagellated spores Chytridiomycota
Phylum _________ has coenocytic hyphae and is characterized by the presence of protective zygosporangium. Zygomycota
Phylum __________ has coenocytic hyphae and forms arbuscular mycorrhizae with plants. Glomeromycota
Phylum _____________ has septate hyphae and forms saclike structures called asci that produce ascospores. Ascomycota
Phylum ____________ has septate hyphae and forms club-shaped structures called basidia that produce sexual spores. Basidiomycota
food storage of fungi lipid or glycogen
What kind of life cycle does fungi have? Haplontic life cycle
What do you call the hardened mycelium that is a sign of the fungi's dormancy, typically caused by environment wherein the fungi experiences desiccation sclerotium
