Question | Answer |
What are the characteristics of fungi? | Stationary Heterotrophic Eukaryotic Unicellular (yeast) Multicellular |
What is the morphology of fungi? | Fruiting body above ground reproductive produces spores in favorable conditions Mycellum underground makes up bulk of orgnanism netlike mass from branching hyphae structural unit of fungus multicellular thread like filament |
How do fungi obtain nutrition? | release digestive enzymes, then absorbs nutrients |
How are fungi classified by nutrition? | parasitic absorb nutrients from cells of host organism (live) predatory mycelia traps prey mutualistic have mutualistic relations with plants/protists saprobial feeds on dead organisms or organic waste decomposers |
How are fungi classified? | by reproduction and fruiting body structure Fungi Imperfecti Chytrids Zygospore Fungi Sac Fungi Club Fungi |
How do fungi reproduce | Sexual Asexual spore production budding (smaller cell develops attached to parent cell then breaks off) fragmentation (mycelium breaks off and forms another individual) |
What is the characteristics of fungi imperfecti? | Asexual soy sauce + cheese diverse Penicillium moldy fruit antibiotic penicillin |
What are the characteristics of Chytrids | mostly unicellular mostly aquatic spores have flagella |
What are the characteristics of Zygospore Fungi? | Multicellular Mostly terrestrial common mould on food left out |
Sac Fungi | largest group form finger-like sacs during sexual reproduction breaks down wood and bone for food includes single-celled yeast |
Club Fungi | grow on lawns and puffballs underground hyphae is largest part of fungus centre of the circle is where the mycelium begins and expands outwards |
Lichens | aka composite organisms fungi+photosynthetic organism important as a food source for natural dye for litmus paper |
