Purpose of a mushroom.
What is for reproduction?
Tail-like projection that helps with movement.
What are flagella?
Fungi use these to reproduce.
What are spores?
Eukaryotes
What are organisms that carry their genetic material inside a nucleus?
Three groups of fungus.
What are sac fungus (yeast), club fungus (mushrooms) and zygote fungus (black bread mold)?
Also know as: Ascomycota, Basidiomycota and Zygomycota?
Where spores are found in mushrooms.
What is on gills? (under the cap)
Protist movement that is a temporary bulge of the cell membrane that fills with cytoplasm. Meaning "false feet."
What is the PSEUDOPOD or ameboid movement?
The cells of Fungi are arranged in structures called:
What are hyphae?
Mycology
What is the study of fungi?
Two differences between a spore and seed.
What is spore size is smaller than seeds and does not provide nutrition like seeds?
A large group of hyphae. (what they are called all together)
What is the mycelium?
Protists provide these two things to other living organisms.
What are food and oxygen?

What is underground? (or inside a rotting organism)
Decomposition
What is the breakdown of dead organic matter to return nutrients to the food chain?
Substance in fungal cell walls.

Process yeast go through that is used in food production.
What is fermentation?
Hair- like projections from the cell that move with a "wave- like" motion:
What are cilia?
Single-celled fungi.
What are yeast?
Parasite
What is an organism that takes nutrients from another/lives off another living organism?
Symbiotic relationship with example.
What is a relationship where both organisms benefit? Example is lichen.
Group of fungi containing mushrooms.
What is Basidiomycota or Club Fungi?
Two jobs that cilia perform for protists.
What are to help with movement and sweep food into “mouth” (oral groove)?
How fungi get nutrition.
What is:
1. the hyphae secrete digestive enzymes outside the fungal body
2. Break down the material
3. Absorb the nutrients?
(Extra cellular digestion)
Saprophytic
