What are the main characteristics of fungi? Name three or more:
Eukaryotic, heterotrophic, have cell walls, major decomposers and recyclers.

Name three main characteristics of Protists:
. Eukaryotic .Multicellular and Unicellular .Autotrophic and Heterotrophic .Many large organisms eat them .They are "an odds & ends group"
100
How do the animal-like Protists eat?
They capture their food with a pseudopod or an oral groove.
100
What are Pseudopods?
Pseudopods are "false feet".

Describe symbiosis with plants:
Fungi grow on the plant/tree roots and provide extra nutrients and water. This causes the tree to grow taller. The fungi get to eat extra food provided by the trees. So both the trees and the fungi benefit from this relationship!
200
What are the main structures of fungi? Name four:
Cap, Stalk, Gills, and Hyphae
200
Name three main types of Protists: and give an example of each-
. Animal-like - amoeba, paramecium . Plant-like - algae, euglena, volvox . Fungus-like - many parasites like slime mold, water mold, & downy mildew
200
How do the Plant-like Protists eat?
Plant-like Protists make their own food using the sun's light and energy and chloroplasts (photosynthesis).
200
How do cilia help move an organism?
Cilia moves objects with it's tiny hair.
200
Describe the structure and function of Hyphae...
Hyphae are branching thread-like tubes that grow loosely underground or tightly above ground to form mushrooms or mold.
300
How do Fungi eat?
.They live off of decaying material (decomposers) .They extend hyphae into food .They ooze out digestive chemicals .They absorb broken down matter
300
What kind of Protist produces most of the world's oxygen?
Plant-like like algae, euglena, and volvox
300
How do Fungi-like Protists eat?
Fungi like Protists live off decaying matter.
300
What is flagella?
Flagella are whip-like tails that spin to move protists through water.
300
What is a decomposer?
A decomposer is an organism that lives off of decaying matter.
400
How do Fungi reproduce? Name three.
. Asexually with Spores . Sexually by combining Hyphae . Can bud (like yeast)
400
What is Autotrophic?
An autotroph is an organism that makes its own food.

What are some types of Fungi? Name three.
Yeast: unicellular, needs food source (sugar), warmth, and water to grow (Bread dough rises because yeast makes carbon dioxide). .Mold: likes warm, moist conditions to grow (reproduces with spores). .Mushrooms: hyphae extend underground and fruiting bodies that produce spores grow above.

What is a Protozoa?
A Protozoa is an animal-like Protist.
500
What is Heterotrophic?
A heterotroph is an organism that needs to obtain (get) its food.
