Plants and Fungi

Question 1

Characteristics of Fungi

Answer 1

Eukaryotic
Multicellular
Have cell walls with chitin
Heterotrophic
Stationary
Grow in shady moist areas

Question 2

Fungal Structure

Answer 2

Hyphae
Mycelium
Fruiting Body

Question 3

Fruiting body

Answer 3

Visible part of fungi, above ground

Question 4

Mycelium

Answer 4

Branching network in ground

Question 5

Hyphae

Answer 5

Basic structure of fungi - densely packed

Question 6

Types of Nutrition

Answer 6

Parasitic
Predatory
Mutualistic
Decomposer

Question 7

Parasitic

Answer 7

absorbs nutrition from living cells of a host

Question 8

Predatory

Answer 8

Specialized structure to trap prey

Question 9

Mutualistic

Answer 9

Partnership with other organisms

Question 10

Decomposer

Answer 10

Feed of dead organisms by secreting enzymes to break down nutrients

Question 11

Asexual reproduction in Fungi

Answer 11

Asexual spores - cells identical to parent that spread via win then sprout
Budding - Smaller cell develops while attached to parent
Fragmentation - Part of the mycelium breaks off and forms a new fungi

Question 12

Sexual reproduction

Answer 12

Meiosis, but there’s no male or female
Hyphae fuse and create haploid spores which are dispersed by air currents and will germinate in a suitable environment

Question 13

Deuteromycota (imperfect fungi)

Answer 13

diverse
reproduce asexually

Question 14

Chytridiomycota (chytrids)

Answer 14

aquatic
reproduced asexually with haploid spores
unicellular

Question 15

Zygomycota

Answer 15

reproduce asexually or sexually
bread mold
produce zygospores

Question 16

Ascomycota (sac fungi)

Answer 16

75% of fungi
develop sacs while breeding

Question 17

Basidiomycota (Club fungi)

Answer 17

Common mushroom

Question 18

Seedless non vascular

Answer 18

Mosses Liverwort Hornworm

Question 19

Seedless Vascular

Answer 19

Ferns Horsetails Club Mosses

Question 20

Gymnosperms

Answer 20

Ginkos Yews Pine

Question 21

Monocot

Answer 21

Seed with 1 part
Fibrous root
Parallel veins in leaves
Vascular bundles are random
Petals in groups of 3

Question 22

Dicot

Answer 22

2 parts to seed
branched veins in leaf
flower parts in 4s and 5e
Tap root
Vascular bundles are in a ring

Question 23

Plant Classification

Answer 23

Seedless non-vascular
Seedless vascular
Gymnosperm
Angiosperm

Question 24

Angiosperm

Answer 24

flowering plants with enclosed seed

Question 25

Gymnosperm

Answer 25

Plant with exposed seed

Question 26

Sexual Reproduction

Answer 26

Seedless - sperm swims to egg, adapted for wet environments repodiction
Seeded - adapted for dry environment reproduction

Question 27

Angiosperms Structure

Answer 27

Pistil - female reproductive part
Petal - colourful structure that attracts pollinators
Sepal - encloses and protects flower
Stamen - male reproductive part

Question 28

Self Pollination

Answer 28

Anther falls onto flowers own stigma
undesirable
prevention - stigma above stamen

Question 29

Cross Pollination

Answer 29

Anther falls onto stigma of a different type of flower
desirable, increase variation

Question 30

Wind pollination

Answer 30

anthers are exposed so they are easily blown away to a stigma
stigmas are feather so they can catch an anther

Question 31

Insect pollination

Answer 31

Adapted to attract insects that with carry anther to a stigma
