Amoebozoans : lobe-shaped or tube shaped pseudopodia (feet) Animals, fungi, and related protist formed the opisthokont clade. Animals & fungi diverged eventually into separate lineages. Nucleariids : heterotrophic amoebas (protists: compare and contrast the characteristics of fungi. Mycelium : fungal body, grows in and around food source. Mostly for structure or feeding but can also be . Fruiting bodies : multicellular , complex: compare and contrast fungal life cycles. A single-cell: starts a new individual haploid (n) Dikaryotic mycelium : nuclei pair off, only 2 nuclei per cell. Environmental change triggers (waiting for the right moment to release haploid nuclei (n+n) spores!) Molds: filamentous fungi, produce spores by mitosis. Single-celled yeasts: mitosis or budding, n n: compare and contrast groups of fungi. Mycorrhizae = symbiotic relationship w/ most plants. Single-celled or filamentous (made of small rods) No asexual stage in life cycle: compare and contrast ecological relevance of fungi. Endophytes : inside leaves/stems, make toxins deter herbivores.
