hyphae
string of fungi cells
Rhizoid hyphae
string of fungi cells under the surface
sexual reproduction
two different hyphae join, combined DNA forming a new different hyphae
(mushrooms, bread mold)
asexual reproduction
identical hyphae form, stolon spreading on the surface
phylum basidiomycota
Club fungi
mushrooms, rusts, smuts
budding
asexual reproduction in yeast
produce drawing to demonstrate
zygote

(whale barnacles)
