|
The five features common to most fungi are saprophytic feeding, extracellular digestion, reproduction by spores, hyphae (multicellular makeup), and cell walls containing chitin.

The cells in some hyphae are separated by cell walls. Thus are called _____. Other hyphae , called _____, have no separations between the cells, and the nuclei are spread throughout the hypha. Even septate hyphae have _____ through which cytoplasm is exchanged.

The cells in some hyphae are separated by cell walls. Thus are called septate hypha. Other hyphae, called noseptate hyphae, have no separations between the cells, and the nuclei are spread throughout the hypha. Even septate hyphae have pores through which cytoplasm is exchanged.

There are many forms of specialized hyphae. _____ are imbedded in the material on which the fungus grows. _____ are not imbedded in the material on which the fungus grows. If such a hypha produces spores, it is a _____, but if it asexually produces more filaments, it is a _____. In the case of a fungus that feeds on a living organism, a hypha that enters the cells of the living organism and draws nutrients directly from the cytoplasm of those cells is called a haustorium.

There are many forms of specialized hyphae. Rhizoid hyphae are imbedded in the material on which the fungus grows. Aerial hyphae are not imbedded in the material on which the fungus grows. If such a hypha produces spores, it is a sporophore, but if it asexually produces more filaments, it is a stolon. In the case of a fungus that feeds on a living organism, a hypha that enters the cells of the living organism and draws nutrients directly from the cytoplasm of those cells is called a haustorium.
