Chapter 31 Flashcards
multicellular heterotrophic terrestrial eukaryotes that feed by absorption
fungi
______ execution to multicellular
__________ exception for terrestrial
one
fungi feed by ______
they secrete ___________ to outside of they bodies
food substances are broken down __________
fungi then ______ the broken down nutrients
absorption
digestive enzymes
externally
absorb
based on there feeding cycle there are three categories of fungi
- saprophytes
- parasites
- mutualists
__________ feed on dead organisms and wastes
saprophytes
____________ parasites feed on living organisms
parasites
____________ absorb nutrients from living organisms but provide other nutrients to the host
mutualists
unicellular fungi are ____________
yeast
most fungi are ____________
multicellular
fungi cells form __________
filamentous tissues
these filamentous strands are called _______
hyphae
fungal cell walls are made of the polysaccharide ______
chitin
fungi that have hyphae with cell cell surrounded by a cell wall of all cells are
septet
fungi have hyphae that lack cell wall division between neighboring cells
aseptate or multinucleate
hyphae pack together to form _____________
a dense tightly network to form a mycelium
a majority of fungi exist ________________
below the ground
mycelium is
- the feeding part of fungi
- spreads outward
the aboveground structures are for _________
reproducing
_ _______consist of hyphae that are very densely packed together
fruiting bodies
yeast reproduce by way of _________
budding
during ________ a smaller cell riches of of the original cell
budding
multicellular fungi produce unicellular spores by _____________ these are _______
mitosis
conidia
__________ are produced by and held on specialized hyphae called ___________
conidia
conidiophores
conidia are released from the conidiophores and dispersed _________
by way of wind
conidia from by ___________ into new genetically identical fungi if they land in optimal location
mitosis
___________ are fungi that exhibit mostly asexual reproduction
molds
molds are mats of mycelia
with many conidiophores
there are no _______________ fore sexual reproduction
fruiting body
fungi _______ posses a alternation of generations life cycle
do NOT (0ne exception)
fungi hyphae are typically
haploid
the only diploid stage in the fungus life cycle is the _______________
zygote
during fertilization, the haploid hyphae of two different fungi first fuse their cytoplasms but the nuclei within ________________
do not yet fuse
this is plasmogamy
________________ results in heterokaryoteic state. The cytoplasms first fuse but the nuclei do not
plasmogamy
neither n or 2n but rather ________
n+n
fungi exist and grow in ______________ state for hours, days or potentially centuries
heterokaryotic
eventually the ___________ fuze in the ______ process
nuclei
karyogamy
federalization is made of
plasmogamy and karyogamy
the zygotes that result from karyogamy immediately undergo _____________ to produce haploid spores
meiosis
spore production occurs with the ______________
fruiting body
spored dispersed by way of the wind and grow into
genetically unique fungi
