vegetative

reproductive

300

Most fungi are _____ _____, requiring _____ to survive. Other species, such as the Chytridiomycota that reside in the rumen of cattle, are _______ ______

obligate aerobes

oxygen

obligate anaerobes

400

 environmental conditions

Ecology of Fungi

100

name 2 types of mycorrhizae

 Ectomycorrhizae 

arbuscular mycorrhiza

200

Lichens are an example of __________

mutualism

300

________ ________ is important for some fungi because an animal may carry spores considerable distances from the source. 

Animal dispersal 

400

the photosynthetic organism provides ____ derived from ______ and ______ while the fungus supplies ________ and _______. 

energy

light and carbohydrates,

minerals and protection

500

explain the relation ship between fungi and  insects in Phylum Arthropoda

Arthropods depend on the fungus for protection from predators and pathogens, while the fungus obtains nutrients and a way to disseminate spores into new environments.

Early Plant Life

100

_____ refers to a lifecycle in which there is a dominant haploid stage, and ______ refers to a lifecycle in which the diploid is the dominant life stage.

Haplontic

diplontic

200

In both _______ and ___ _____ , the female gametophyte provides protection and nutrients to the embryo as it develops into the new generation of sporophyte.

seedless and seed plants

300

the apical meristem is made of

undifferentiated cells that continue to proliferate throughout the life of the plant.

400

In land plants, a waxy, waterproof cover called a cuticle protects the leaves and stems from desiccation. However, the cuticle also prevents intake of carbon dioxide needed for the synthesis of carbohydrates through photosynthesis. How did they overcome this

Stomata!

Bulk Flow in Plants

100

plasma membrane

cell wall

Misc

100
