microbio exam 2fungi

QuestionAnswer
Opisthokonts animals(metazoa), true fungi(eumycota), and microsporidia
Fungi Opisthokonts, specifically eumycota, unicellular or multicellular, absorptive nutrition and chitin cell wall, four divisions: Chytridiomycota, Zygomycota, Basidiomycota, Ascomycota
Chytridiomycota Fungal Phylum with flaggelated zoospores, deepest branching clade. ex: Neocallimastix(bovine rumens), Batachochytrium(animal pathogen)
Zygomycota Fungal phylum with nonmotile spores, sporangium bears spores. ex: Rhizopus(bread mold), Mucor(soil mold), Glomus(mutualistic with plants)
Ascomycota Fungal phylum with nonmotile ascospores that are held on asci ex: Neurospora(bread mold), Morels and Truffels, Aspergillus(skin disease), Pneumocystis jirovecii(pneumonia)
Basidiomycota Fungal phylum containing True mushrooms (large fruiting bodies) ex: Amanita phalloides (poison mushrooms), portabello mushrooms
Microsporidia phylum of fungal parasites, small genome & degenerate genes, nonfunctional mito, Encephalitozoon intestinalis, opportunistic pathogen (aids)
Viridiplantae phylum containing plants and algae, primary (red and green algae) and secondary symbionts (Cryptophyte algae, Crysophytes(kelps & diatoms)
Primary endosymbionts Viridiplantae, contains endosymbiotic cyanobacteria and are represented by red (rhodophyte) and green (chlorophyte) algae
Green Algae primary symbiotic algae of the viridiplantae phylum containing chlamydomonas(paired front flagella), Spirogyra, Volvox, Ulva, and Cymopolia
Red Algae Viridiplantae, red from phycoerythrin, deeper waters scavenging light, agar (sulfated polygalactans), porphyra(seaweed)
Secondary endosymbionts second engulfing of primaries, nucleomorph, Cryptophyte and Crysophyte (kelp & diatom)
Diatom Bacillariophyceae, unicellular algae with SiO2 frustules, divide into smaller fragments
Coccolithophore algae with a CaCO3 shell
Brown algae phaeophyceae, aka kelp, leucocin
Protists Amoebas, Ciliates, Alveolates, Heterokonts
Amoeba amorphous with pseudopods, Amoebazoa, Radiolarins(silica), Foraminiferans(CaCO3)
Alveolates Ciliates, Dinoflagellates, apicomplexans
Ciliates many cilia, for engulfing and taxis, paramecium has oral groove, and digestive and contractile vacuoles
Dinoflagellates phytoplankton, two flagella (one around shell), chloroplast surrounded by 3 membranes, red from carotenoid, red bloom
Apicomplexes parasites, plasmodium, malaria, apical complex allows entry to host cell, invades liver, merozoites in RBC, replicate in mosquito
Trypanosomes obligate parasites two examples Leishmania major (leishmaniasis) and Trypanosoma brucei (ASS)
Metamonads parasites and symbionts, no mitochondria, Giardia lamblia is an example
Choanoflagellates Closest relative to metazoans, collar resembles sponges, may be missing link between animals and fungi
Amanita phalloides toxic mushroom, alpha amanitin inhibits rnapol II

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
