Q

what are the roles of clamp connections?

A

maintenance of dikaryotic cells

preserves pairing of compatible nuclei (gametes)

17
Q

when do basidia arise?

18
Q

what are the mechanisms of becoming a dikaryon?

A

somatogamy

spermatization

19
Q

spermatization

A

spermatia come into contact with receptive hyphae

20
Q

what subclass doesn’t form doesn’t form a hymenium? & why?

A

heterobasidiomycetes

contain septations in the basidia

21
Q

what does the hymenium contain?

A

Sterile elements: cystidia, hyhidia & paraphyses

meiospore producing basidia

22
Q

cystidia

A

contain water & contribute to a moist atmosphere where the fruiting body occurs

23
Q

sub-hymenium

A

pseudo tissue layer apart of the non-fertile trama tissue

24
Q

sterigma

A

channel through which protoplasm is extruded

25
There are as few as ___ basidiospores per basidia & up to _____ basidiospores
2 32-64
26
how are spores released?
catapulted out of the basidiocarp, spores are non-motile themselves
27
what phylums form sporocarps?
ascomycota & basidiomycota
28
describe the shape of basidiospores
have concave & convex sides (egg shape) not circular
29
what property of sterigma enable spore release?
flexibility enables catapulting
30
hilar droplet
region of spore in which the sterigma & the spore is attached
31
apiculus
a cup-shaped structure, at the tip of the sterigma region where the hilar droplet is found
32
Fungi are classified by:
phyla (ota) classes (mycetes) Order (ales) Families (aceae) Genera & species (specific epithet)
33
scientific names are generally informative of the _____ and/or ____ of the indiv
appearance and/or habitat
