Refer to the image below. 3. What structures are indicated within the green boxes? [1] 4. How are the structures above modified to facilitate transport/growth in fungi? [1] 5. All fungi are heterotrophs, and they all feed by absorbing nutrients from a medium. Explain why fungal hyphae are ideal when it comes to their method of feeding. [1]

Fungi Form and function 1) Fungi are chemoheterotrophs. What does this mean? 2) Fungi grow by extending hyphae towards their food source. How does their morphology make this easy to accomplish? 3) How does the morphology (form) and growth of fungi lead to them functioning as mycorrhizae? 4) In your own words, define "Plasmogamy" and draw a picture to illustrate the concept. 5) In your own words, define "Karyogamy". 6) How do heterokaryotic cells in fungi differ from diploid cells?
Adi S.
1) When did fungi first appear? 2) Fungi feed on decaying and dead matter: What is the term for this decaying matter? 3) What is plasmogamy? 4) Explain (describe) each of the following fungal groups: Chytridiomycota, Zygomycota, Ascomycota, Basidiomycota, Deuteromycota, Glomeromycota 5) Where are fungi usually found (what type of environments)? 6) Name some organisms or structures that fungi have symbiotic relationships with: 7) Why are fungal infections difficult to cure? 8) Provide 2 examples of how fungi are important in human life
Madhur L.
1) Both fungi and animals are heterotrophs although they are markedly different in how they acquire nutrients. Explain. 2) Mycorrhizae are sometimes referred to as "fungus roots." Explain. 3) Give the name of the sexual spore associated with each type of organism, and cite the scientific group name of the fungus. A. Black bread mold B. Cup fungus C. Mushroom 4) What metabolic process do yeast perform that is used in alcohol production? 5) Of what benefit are the mycorrhizae to the plant? 6) Of what benefit is to a typical mushroom if the cap opens up when mature? 7) Explain the composition of lichens and why this composition is usually considered a mutualistic relationship 8) What type of fungus studied is not composed of hyphae as are other fungi? Explain. 9) Why is it advantageous for fungi to reproduce sexually and asexually?
