What is a Fairy Ring? |
A ring of mushrooms (Basidiomycota) around the base of a tree. |
|
What is concidered a Fungi? |
Eukaryotic, Heterotrophic, ~100,000 species W.W. |
|
What is a Filamentous? |
|
|
What is the Hyphae of a Fungi? |
A long, branching, thin filamentous structure. Which are the main mode of vegetative growth, and are collectively called a mycelium. |
|
What is the Mycelium? |
Interwoven mass of hyphae through substrate. |
|
What is concidered the "Fruiting body"? |
Reproducive structures in fungi. |
|
Whithin the fruiting body what is the Septate? |
2 nuclei in separate cells w/ a septum containing pore. |
|
What is the Coenicytic? |
Same as the septate but with NO septum. |
|
Discribe Absorptive Nutrition. |
Heterotrophic consumption... either Saprophytic, parasitic, or mutualistic. |
|
What are Hydrolytic Enzymes? |
Enzyme secreted by fungi to break down food outside the body before absorption. (breaks down - Lignin and cellulose) |
|
Discribe Mycelial Growth. |
Fungal growth towards more food w/ fruiting body at the front of the growth. |
|
What is a Mycorrhizi? |
Fungi that aids in plant growth in a symbiotic mutualism. |
|
What is a Endophytic Fungi? |
Fungi that lives w/in the plant (Excluding roots). |
|
What are Lichens? |
Mutualistic association of fungi and algae or cyanobacteria. |
|
What happens when you have a Fungi + Algae interaction? (Lichen) |
Algae binds to the hyphae and provides energy (photosynthesis) and water. |
|

What is Folicose? |
|
|
What is Crustose? |

|
What types of reproduction are used by fungi? |
Both sexual and asexual |
|
Describe fungi sexual reproduction. |
Plasmogamy, Karyogamy, meiosis |
|
Discribe fungi asexual reproduction. |
Mycelium(n) produce spores. |
|
Describe Plasmogamy. |
Joining together of hyphae from different includes fusing of cells and sharing cytoplasm (life cycle) |
|
