BSC 2011L Final Prep-Questions With Complete
Solutions
Clade Opisthokonta
monophyletic; consists of animals, fungi, some closely related protists
absorptive heterotrophs
obtain energy from organic carbon by absorption (absorb other nutrients)
mycelium
major part of fungal body, hidden under soil; consists of network of hyphae (complete feeding
network)
fruiting bodies
sexual reproductive structures of fungi; produce spores
zygomycota
produce zygosporangia, zygotes; do not form monophyletic group; sexual and asexual
reproduction
ascomycota
produce asci, ascospores (sexual); asexual; "sac fungi"
basidiomycota
produce basidia, basidiospores (sexual); asexual, monophyly
How is sexual reproduction in fungi initiated?
, fruiting bodies, attraction of hyphae
What are the common food sources of fungi?
decaying plant and animal matter
stolon hyphae
cover horizontal surface
rhizoid hyphae
penetrate for absorption of nutrients
sporangiophores
stand upright to hold sporangium at tips
zygosporangia forms when
opposite mating types (+ and -) of hyphae come together; sexual
rhizopus sexual structures
rhizopus asexual structures
sporangiospore, sporangium, sporangiophore, stolon hyphae, rhizoid hyphae
yeast
ascomycete; divide by budding/binary fission; Y-M shift associated with pathogenesis
peziza asci
basidiomycota diagram
