Fungi are different from plants because
they are autotrophic and plants are heterotrophic.
they are heterotrophic and plants are autotrophic.
they have cellulose in their cell walls and plants have chitin.
they have chitin in their cell walls and plants have cellulose
Chose the sexual reproductive unit in fungi:
hyphae
mycelium
spore
gametophyte
You start with one diploid cell. Meiosis results in (a) , while mitosis results in (b) .
What is the name of the one cell structure that makes the spores?
hyphae
mycelium
sporangium
sporophyte
Haploid means:
having one copy of DNA
having one cell
having two copies of DNA
having two cells
Diploid means:
having one copy of DNA
having one cell
having two copies of DNA
having two cells
The difference between diploid and dikaryon is:
diploid has two unfused copies of DNA, while dikaryon is fused
diploid has two fused copies of DNA, while dikaryon is unfused
diploid is only in animals, dikaryon is in fungi and plants
diploid is in eukaryotes, dikaryon is in prokaryotes
Jimmy Two-times is trying to remember the difference between mycelium and hyphae. He remembers that:
hyphae make up both the mycelium and fruiting body (reproductive structure) in fungi
hyphae are fused mycelium underground in a fungus
hyphae are when you get really crazy or goofy
mycelium make up both the hyphae and fruiting body (reproductive structure) in fungi
Fungi eat stuff by
secreting enzymes external to the fungal body, digesting the material, then bringing the digested materials into their body.
surrounding and absorbing the materials they eat, then using enzymes internally to digest the food.
chewing it with their hyphal teeth (similar in shape to a mushroom), then making a hyphal stomach where they digest the food.
using the Mario power up to get bigger.
Fossil evidence shows that fungi are at least 715 million years old, which shows us that:
land plants helped fungi colonize land.
fungi helped the first land plants colonize land.
fungi helped the European colonists survive in North America.
fungi are most closely related to dinosoaurs.
Fungi exist in the dikaryon state for a long time before making mushrooms and spores. How long does the diploid state last in most fungi?
Nice try Smith. Fungi do not have a diploid state.
The diploid state lasts just as long as the dikaryon state.
The diploid state lasts just as long as it takes for the cells to divide in the first stage of meiosis, which is not very long at all.
The diploid state lasts even longer than the dikaryon state. The diploid state is what the hyphae of the mushroom are made from.
Some fungi are saprobes. Saprobes:
help recycle nutrients in dead matter.
feed off the energy of living organisms.
live in close and mutually beneficial association with other species.
Some fungi are parasites. Parasites:
help recycle nutrients in dead matter.
feed off the energy of living organisms.
live in close and mutually beneficial association with other species.
Some fungi are symbionts. Symbionts:
help recycle nutrients in dead matter.
feed off the energy of living organisms.
live in close and mutually beneficial association with other species.
Otzi the iceman had fungi on his body when he died. He was most likely using these fungi to:
see things that weren't there.
get rid of parasites.
eat when he was hungry.
The Norway witch trials were most likely caused by:
the leader of the town poisoned by psychoactive substances.
much of the town experiencing hallucinations due to ergot in the grain.
witches being punished for the bad spells they cast on the townsfolk.
