State 2 types of drugs that are products of fungi.
|
antibiotics & antiviral drugs
|
|
a footlike extension of cytoplasm used by some organisms to move & trap food.
|
pseudopod
|
|
yeasts, molds, morels & truffles are examples of this division of fungi;the spores of these fungi are produced in sacs called asci.
|
sac fungi
|
|
plant-like protists that contain chlorophyll & make their own food; they have no roots, stems, or leaves & live in or near water.
|
algae
|
|
a plant-like protist that moves about using pseudopods.
|
sarcodines
|
|
simple organisms having cells with a nucleus.
|
protists
|
|
one-celled alge with body made of two halves; cell walls contain silica; pigment golden brown.
|
diatom
|
|
a resistant reproductive cell that forms new organisms without fertilization; in fungi, ferns & some protists.
|
spore
|
|
one & many celled species; Most live in water, some live out of water, or in other organisms; pigment chlorophyll.
|
green algae
|
|
one-celled animal-like protists; many are parasites.
|
protozoa
|
|
a relationship in which 2 organisms live together, both benefit in some way.
|
mutualistic
|
|
a condition where 2 organisms live together for mutual benefit.
|
symbiosis
|
|
a strong, flexible carbohydrate forming the cell walls of hyphae & found in the body-covering and wings of insects.
|
chitin
|
|
the spore producing sacs of sac fungi.
|
asci
|
|
Give an example of a Sarcodina.
|
amoeba
|
|
the round, spore-producing cases of zygote fungi.
|
sporangia
|
|
Name the fungus-like protists.
|
slime molds, water molds, & mildew
|
|
Give an example of a sporozoan.
|
plasmodium
|
|
one-celled algae that move with a flagellum; has eyespot to detect light; pigment chlorophyll.
|
euglena
|
|
a fungus living in a mutualistic relationship with green algae.
|
lichen
|
|
Many-celled algae; carbohydrate in red algae is used to give some foods a creamy texture; pigment red
|
red algae
|
|
a type of asexual reproduction in which a new organism grows from the body of its parent; for example, yeast reproduces this way.
|
budding
|
|
short, hairlike structures that extend from the cell membrane & help tiny organisms move; found in respiratory passages.
|
cilia
|
|
masses of thread-like structures that form the body of a fungus.
|
hyphae
|
|
an animal-like protist that moves using flagella; example-protozoan
|
flagellates
|
|
Give an example from the Ciliophora kingdom.
|
paramecium
|
|
Many-celled algae; most live in salt water; important food source in acquatic enviornments; pigment brown.
|
brown algae
|
|
Name the animal-like protists.
|
sarcodines, flagellates, ciliates,& sporozoans.
|
|
Why have fungi become so important to medicine?
|
They produce a wide variety of compounds that are useful in treating bacterial & viral diseases.
|
|
a division of fungi which produces spores in round spore cases called sporangia; ex. fuzzy black mold on bread.
|
zygote fungi
|
|
Name the important drug made from an imperfect fungus; this drug was approved for use in organ transplant patients; prevents rejection.
|
cyclosporine
|
|
a division of fungi; composed of species of fungi in which a sexual stage has never been observed; ex. penicillin
|
imperfect fungi
|
|
animal-like protist; small, parasitic protozoans that have no way of moving.
|
sporozoans
|
|
the club-shaped spore-producing structure of club fungi.
|
basidium
|
|
a division of fungi; the spores of these fungi are produced in a club-shaped structure called a basidium.ex. mushroom
|
club fungi
|
|
animal-like protist; complex protozoan that moves using cilia.
|
ciliates
|
|
one-celled algae with 2 flagella. Flagella cause cell to spin; Some species cause red tide; pigment red.
