Document Summary

They are heterotrophs; they don"t make their own food because they are not photosynthetic. Multicellular or unicellular (e. g. yeast is unicellular without agella) Cell wall is made of chitin which is a polysaccharide (e. g. arthropod shells, cephalopod beaks, sh scales) Basic unit is hypha which is an extension of a number of cells. Hyphae makes up mycelium which is a mass of hyphae. Have walls that form in between cells with pores: coenocytic hyphae. Without cell walls and no septate (aseptate) Fungus has wrapped itself around the plasma membrane. Fungal growth is easy; it involved the secretion of material and digestion. Spores turn to fungi made by mitosis which are haploid. The fungus might choose to undergo sexual reproduction. Plasmogamy is the fusion of the cytoplasm. Karyogamy is the fusion of the nuclei. Zygotic meiosis (the zygote does not develop, but undergo meiosis. Each spore contains a nucleus, dehydrated cytoplasm, and protective coat.

1.A mycologist visits your biology class and discusses herresearch on a particular fungus that lives on the bark of damagedspruce trees. She explains that the fungal hyphae of her researchorganism is heterokaryotic. You raise your hand and request thatshe define that word. Her correct response is

heterokaryotic means that thenuclei of the fungal hyphae are genetically the same.

heterokaryotic means that eachcompartment of the hyphae contain two distinct nuclei.

heterokaryotic means that thenuclei of each compartment of the hyphae are geneticallydistinct.

heterokaryotic means that each compartment of the hyphaecontains only one nucleus.

2. Select the true statements concerning reproduction ofbasidiomycetes. (Check all that apply.)

The adult forms of a typicalbasidiomycete consists of a mass of dikaryotic primarymycelia.

The secondary mycelia fuse to formprimary mycelia. The primary mycelia form the fruiting body.

The gills of an Amanitamushroom contains basidiospores.

Karyogamy produces a diploid zygotethat undergoes meiosis.

Meiosis produces basidiospores, and the fusion of spores fromdifferent mating strains produces the primary mycelium.

3. In the life cycle of a zygomycete, after the zygospore isformed, the next event will be

dikaryon formation.
