Biology: Unit 1: Diversity Of Life Fungi Fungi: are multi-cellular heterotrophs that use external digestion‚ and often grow out of sight‚ underground → fungi have nothing in common with plants other then the fact that they are stationary‚ and grow in the ground. They are not photosynthetic‚ and they do not produce their own food. Characteristics/ Cell Structure: * Mesh like bodies‚ composed of branching networks of filaments called mycelium * Mycelium: a branched mass of hyphae

Fungi Web quest Amanitas Amanita (various species) Family: Amanitaceae (amanitas) in the phylum Basidiomycota (club fungi) Description: There are about 600 species in the genus Amanita worldwide. Each amanita starts as an egg-shaped button that can resemble a small puffball. These breaks open as the mushroom grows. Fully developed amanitas are gilled mushrooms with parasol-shaped

Laboratory Exercise #5 Identification of Fungi Fungi‚ like bacteria‚ may be useful in industry but also problematic. Many produce important products including foods‚ chemicals‚ enzymes and pharmaceuticals such as antibiotics and hormones. Molds‚ however‚ in particular‚ are also common contaminants in industry. It is important to be able to recognize and identify them‚ therefore‚ in the laboratory. In today’s laboratory session you will examine some common molds and attempt to identify them.

Introduction There are both virulent and non-virulent bacteria and fungi that grow on plants. It is difficult to distinguish between the two without proper inspection and diagnosis of the diseased plant to know whether the bacteria or the fungus in question is the virulent or non-virulent one. Therefore pure cultures need to be isolated to know with absolute certainty which is the causative bacteria or fungus. Potato dextrose agar is a good nutrient agar for mycelia to thrive on which is present

only inside the living cells of other organisms. Viruses can infect all types of life forms‚ from animals and plants to bacteria and archaea. Characteristics: Like living organisms‚ viruses contain nucleic acids and proteins. Inside living cells‚ viruses can reproduce‚ but not by the process of mitosis like most living cells. Viruses lack some characteristics of living organisms. Outside of living cells‚ viruses are not alive. Structure/Shape: A virus structure can be one of the following: icosahedral

* Fungi are Eukaryotic‚ mainly multi cellular organisms includes molds and mushrooms * fungi lack chlorophyll * they are heterotrophic and cell walls contain chitin * more closely related to animals * supergroup Unikonta categorized as opisthokonts bc of single posterior flagellum * heterotrophs‚ secrete enzymes which digest food outside the body‚ the broken down food is then absorbed by hyphae * 3 types of fungi * decomposer fungi‚ absorb nutrients

Meghan Veach Bio. 101 Dr. Davis April 28‚ 2014 Chapter 18 - Evolution of Plants and Fungi Plants have been around for over 500 million years‚ the plants all differ so much but they also have many similarities among themselves and also to green algae. Some scholars even think that plants paved the way for land animals by simultaneously increasing the amount of oxygen in the Earth ’s atmosphere and decreasing the amount of carbon dioxide. Evolutionist believe that plants evolved from green
