| The tangled mass that makes up the body of a fungus is the | mycelium |
| Sporangia are found at the tops of specialized hyphae called | sporangiosphores |
| In mushrooms, the basidia are found on the | cap |
| Fungi feed on | both living and death organisms |
| The fungus that forms a mycelium within the outer layers of human skin causes | ringwork and athlete's foot |
| Bread rises because fermentation by yeast produces | carbon dioxide |
| An important role of fungi in an ecosystem is | breaking down dead organisms |
| Which of the following is NOT a characteristic of all plants? | produce seeds |
| Which of the following statements is not true about bryophytes? | they draw up water by osmosis |
| which of the following structures has functions similar to that of roots? | rhizoid |
| Xylem and phloem are NOT | present in bryophytes |
| seed-bearing plants differ from all other plants in that | their gametes do not require water for fertilization to occur |
