What are bacteria? Bacteria are very different from viruses. First of all‚ bacteria are much larger in size. The largest virus is only as big as the very smallest bacterium (singular for bacteria). But bacteria are still microscopic and cannot be seen with the naked eye. They are so small that the sizes of bacteria are measured in micrometers (10‚000 micrometers = 1 centimeter). By comparison‚ the head of a pin is about 1000 micrometers wide. Though more complex than a virus‚ the structure of a

fungus (plural‚ fungi). The word fungus has come to stand for a whole group of simple plants that contain no chlorophyll and lack such complex plant structures as roots‚ stems‚ leaves‚ and flowers. Included among the fungi‚ along with mushrooms‚ are molds‚ mildews‚ rusts‚ smuts‚ truffles‚ and yeasts. Toadstool is another name for mushroom. Some people use the name toadstool only when referring to poisonous mushrooms‚ but botanists make no such distinction. A general scientific term for fungi is mycota

Both Plants and fungi affect the carbon cycle though they do it in different ways- both of them interfere with it while they are attempting to get food/energy to survive on. Each have adapted so they can live in an environment where they can source enough food to survive. They get these things from different sources so grow in very different conditions in order to survive. Plants live in places with lots of sunlight as well as a place where they can source water whereas fungi can live almost anywhere

Designation of phylum cryptomycota within kingdom fungi Introduction The cryptomycota are considered to be to be an early branching clade of organisms‚ the only known members are species that belong in the genus Rozella (Lara et al 2010‚ Jones et al 2011‚ James and Berbee 2012). It has been suggested due largely to the amount of environmental sequences collected the phylum may be as diverse as the whole kingdom fungi (Jones et al 2011). While Rozella were originally placed in the fungal phylum

Write an essay on the role of fungi in wood and litter decay. [40] Fungi‚ together with bacteria‚ are the principal decomposers in the biosphere. They break down organic materials and return the substances locked in those molecules to circulation in the ecosystem. Fungi can break down cellulose and lignin‚ an insoluble organic compound that is one of the major constituents of wood. By breaking down such substances‚ fungi release carbon‚ nitrogen‚ and phosphorus from the bodies of living

Fungi is one of the five kingdoms of the living world that contains a diversity of organisms‚ there is an estimation of about 1.5 million species of fungi worldwide out of which‚ approximately 120000 species and majority tends to be living in an environment which is either aquatic or terrestrial ascomycetes and basidiomycetes species (Kirk‚ 2008). Have been described till date‚ however the numbers are dynamic in steadily escalating (Hawksworth‚ 1991) Cercospora zeae-maydisis fungus that is responsible

Identification and Impact of Airborne Fungi over the Sydney Basin Introduction The need to identify and monitor airborne fungi is vital to the health of humans. Fungal spores may trigger allergic responses in sensitised people‚ causing respiratory diseases such as hayfever and asthma (Knox‚ Ladiges‚ Evans and Saints 2006). A variety of techniques can be used to identify the diversity and density of fungi within the Sydney Basin. The use of agar plate exposure allows microbial colonies to

between bacteria viruses‚ Fungi and Parasites. Viruses are pieces of nucleic acid (DNA or RNA) wrapped in a thin coat of protein that replicate only within the cells of living hosts. Bacteria are one-cell microorganisms with a simple cellular organization whose nucleus lacks a membrane. Parasites may be protozoa‚ yeasts‚ or multicellular organisms such as fungi or worms that live in or on a host to obtain nourishment without providing any benefit to the host. Fungi There are many different
