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

meiosis.
mitosis.

karyogamy.

4. Why does champagne have bubbles?

CO2 is used to makeglucose during respiration.
Yeast fermentation continues afterthe champagne is bottled.
Dead yeast cells releaseCO2 into the bottles.

Yeast produce O2 during aerobic respiration.

Chitin
Lignin
Collagen
Cellulose

Deoxyribose

7. Why can lichens live on bare rock?

UV radiation powers enzymes thatallow the fungus to extract organic material from itssurroundings.
The fungi are autotrophic.

It uses the wallboard as asubstrate but extracts nutrients from the air.

It digests the cellulose in the paper backing.

14. Why is the term "fungal cell mitosis" not technicallyaccurate?

The septa between nuclei form priorto mitosis.
All of the mycelium undergoesmitosis at the same time.
All stages of mitosis occur withinthe nucleus.
