Question
Answer
During the process of..... energy is released   fermentation  
🗑
.... are saclike structures that produce many spores   sporangia  
🗑
club fungi produce spores on a sac called....   ascus  
🗑
bread mold produces masses of threadlike structures called   hyphae  
🗑
..... are fungi that produce spores in special structures on the tips of hyphae   sporangia fungi  
🗑
..... is a type of sexual reproduction in which an outgrowth from the parent organism forms a new organism   budding  
🗑
sac fungi are fungi that....   produce spores inside an ascus  
🗑
yeast cells may reproduce by forming spores or by....   budding  
🗑
a sporangium fungus obtains food by....   absorption  
🗑
club fungi include puffballs, bracken fungi, and.....   mushrooms  
🗑
a sporangium fungus reproduces by.....   spores and zygospores  
🗑
unlike a plant, a fungus does not have...   chlorophyll  
🗑
which one of the following helpful fungi is used to flavor cheese....   mold  
🗑
each basidium will produce how many spores   four  
🗑
the basidia are found on what part of the mushroom   gills  
🗑
fermentation produces what products?   carbon dioxide and alcohol  
🗑
masses of hyphae are called what   mycelium  
🗑
another name for anaerobic respiration is..   fermentation  
🗑
a person who studies fungi is called a....   mycologist  
🗑
the cell walls of fungi are made of...   chitin  
🗑
what is the common ancestor of fungi   aquatic single-celled flagellated protist  
🗑
fungi: closer to plants or animals?   animals  
🗑
fungi: prokaryote or eukaryote   eukaryote  
🗑
fungi: heterotroph or autotroph   heterotroph  
🗑
what do fungi store their carbs as   glycogen  
🗑
which fungi is unicellular   yeast  
🗑
cells of two different individuals unite, but nuclei remain separate and the two nuclei eventually fuse to create diploid zygote   dikaryotic stage  
🗑
microscopic, thread-like filaments that branch rapidly within food source   hyphae  
🗑
mass of aggregated hyphae   mycelium  
🗑
appears above ground and is the part we see of fungi   fruiting body  
🗑
microscopic reproductive cells. once they land on good habitat, they germinate and give rise to hyphae   spores  
🗑
asexual spores   conidia  
🗑
hyphae aggregate to form fruiting body which produces spores   sexual spores  
🗑
list the five phyla of fungi   chytridiomycetes, zygomycetes, glomeromycetes, ascomycetes, and basidiomycetes  
🗑
what is the fruiting body of fungi made up of?   stalk which supports a cap w/ numerous gills that produce spores  
🗑
which phyla of fungi is responsible for the infecting and killing of amphibians?   chytridiomycetes  
🗑
produce enzymes which break down cellulose, chitin, and keratin and found in a cow's digestive tract   chytridiomycetes  
🗑
only fungi to produce swimming cells w/ single flagellum   chytridiomycetes  
🗑
1000 species including black bread mold   zygomycetes  
🗑
grows quickly and can be parasites on insects   zygomycetes  
🗑
what is the cause of mold on bread being black?   the zygosporangium in zygomycetes  
🗑
2 hyphae fuse, haploid nuclei fuses into diploid zygospore protected by zygosporangium and zygospore undergoes meiosis to create haploid hyphae to produce spore sac and release spores   sexual reproduction of zygomycetes  
🗑
uses conidia which is the product of mitosis   asexual reproduction of zygomycetes  
🗑
smallest group of fungi   glomeromycetes  
🗑
this group can't grow on their own so they must have relationship w/ roots   glomeromycetes  
🗑
generally asexual and not sexual   glomeromycetes  
🗑
this group includes mycorrhiza fungi and arbuscules   glomeromycetes  
🗑
hyphae absorbs water and mineral from the soil and shares w/ the plant (mutualistic)   mycorrhiza fungi  
🗑
highly branched structures inside the roots of plants where the exchange of materials takes place   arbuscules  
🗑
largest group of fungus   ascomycetes  
🗑
some colonize insects, decompose organisms, or form a relationship w/ photosynthetic organisms   ascomycetes  
🗑
causes athletes foot and black mold in homes   ascomycetes  
🗑
list 4 examples of ascomycetes   truffles, penicillium, fermentation w/ yeast, cyclosporine  
🗑
hyphae fuse but individual nuclei do not (dikaryotic) and eventually they fuse to create diploid zygote that undergoes meiosis to create 4 haploid nuclei that go thru mitosis and create 8 haploid ascospores   sexual reproduction of ascomycetes  
🗑
group includes mushrooms and puffballs   basidiomycetes  
🗑
spores are dispersed by wind, animals, or water   basidiomycetes  
🗑
group includes smuts and rusts   basidiomycetes  
🗑
smuts and ruts cause   crop disease  
🗑
basidiomycetes reproduce asexually thru...   conidia  
🗑
2 haploid hyphae fuse to create dikaryotic mycelium that sends up a mushroom and the basidia the nuclei fuse to create diploid zygote and undergoes meiosis to create 4 haploid nuclei   sexual reproduction of basidiomycetes  
🗑
list four examples of mutualism in fungi   endophytes, mycorrhizal fungi, ants & fungi, and lichen  
🗑
hyphae that live between the cells of a plant's tissues without causing disease and all plants have this   endophytes  
🗑
some plants can't survive without this relationship on roots, this produces branched arbuscules after it pierces root cells and extends to soil to absorb water and nutrients   mycorrhizal fungi  
🗑
fungal hyphae wrap around root tips and surrounding soil but DO NOT penetrate root cells   ectomycorrhize  
🗑
ectomycorrhize are primarily found in which two phyla   basidiomycetes and ascomycetes  
🗑
similarity between endophyte and mycorrhizal fungi   both occupy the roots of plants  
🗑
differences between endophyte and mycorrhizal fungi (2)   endophytes don't make arbuscules and mycorrhizal fungi cannot survive on their own  
🗑
ants transport paste from saliva and disks from leaves which fungus grows on and the ant then eats the fungus grown   ants and fungi  
🗑
forms when a fungus harbors green algae or cyanobacteria among its hyphae   lichen  
🗑
lichen is primarily formed with what two phyla?   basidiomycetes and ascomycetes  
🗑
list three characteristics of lichen   photosynthetic partner gives carbs and fungus absorbs h2o & nutrients, lichen secrete acids to break down rock, good indicator species for air quality  
🗑
