| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| chlorophyll-containing, plantlike protists that produce oxygen as a result of photosynthesis | algae |
| saclike, spore-producing structure of sac fungi | ascus |
| club-shaped, reproductive structure in which club fungi produce spores | basidium |
| form of asexual reproduction in which a new, genetically-identical organism forms on the side of its parent. | budding |
| short, threadlike structures that extend from the cell membrane of a ciliate and allow the organism to move quickly | cilia |
| long, thin whiplike structure of some protists that helps them move through moist or wet surroundings | flagellum |
| mass of many-celled, threadlike tubes forming the body of a fungus. | hyphae |
| one or many-celled eukaryotic organism that can be plantlike, animal-like, or funguslike | protists |
| one-celled, animal-like protist that can live in water, soil, and living and dead organisms | protozoans |
| temporary cytoplasmic extensions used by some protists to move about and trap food | pseudopods |
| organism that feeds on dead or decaying tissues of other organisms | saprophyte |
| round spore case of a zygote fungus | sporangium |
| waterproof reproductive cell of a fungus | spore |
| contain chlorphyll and make food using photosynthesis, have cell walls, no specialized ways to move from place to place | plant-like protist |
| cannot make their own food;capture other organisms for food; do not have cell walls; have specialized ways to move from place to place | animal-like protist |
| cannot make their own food;asborb food from their surroundings;some have cell walls, some do not; have specialized ways to move from place to place | funguslike protist |
| organism made up of a fungus and a green alga or a cyanobacterium | lichen |
| network of hyphae and plant roots that helps plants absorb water and minerals from soil | mycorrhizae |
