| Basic Structures and terms |
|
Definition
Eukaryote cell
Cell wall made of chitin (N-acetylgucosamine monomers)
Strict aerobe (fermenters) |
|
|
Term
| Thallus or Body made up of what |
|
Definition
| Made up of long filaments of cells called hyphae (mycelium) |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Vegetative- the nutritive hyphae
Aerial-produces the reproductive structures |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Unicellular(look like bacteria when growing on agar)
Much bigger under scope often seen budding |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Under circumstances changes from yeast-like to producing pseudohyphae (daughter cells that fail to release from the mother cell) |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Differentiated by how they sexually reprouce |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Sexual spores in a large cell ex. Mold-like Zygospores |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Sexual spores produced in a enlongated sac. EX. Truffles (ascospores |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Sexual Spores produced by specialized cells called basidium ex common shrooms. and yeasts Basidiospores |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Sexual reproduction currently unknown and no sexually produced spores are reconized |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Asexually cell division by (mitosis) |
|
|
Term
| Budding and fission (yeast) |
|
Definition
| a typical form of mitosis, cells that divide unevenly-budding or evenly-fission |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Produced by the aerial hyphae of one organism |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Hyphae break off and produce clones |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Germination-->Mycelium-->Spore-producing structure-->spores |
|
|
Term
| Fungal diseases are called |
|
Definition
| Mycoses, they are often chronic and difficult to treat, spores make inhalation the most popular transmission route, produce antibiotics |
|
|
Term
| Economically important fungi |
|
Definition
| Are exploited by industries for food, pulp, and pesticides, responsible for destruction of forestry, fruit, veggies |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Microscopic unicellular animals that inhabit aquatic and soil environments, and are EU cells that lack cell wall |
|
|
Term
| True or False Protozoa can ingest food particles and move freely about. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| T/F Under favorable conditions, protozoa exist as active forms called trophozites |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
| Protozoa species transform in protective bodies called... |

Term
|
Definition
Flagellated eukaryotes
Lack mitochondria(thus cant produce atp) Strict fermenter!
Associated with intestinal tract of animals |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Amoebas
Move by pseudopodia
Some have motile sexual stage |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Ciliated
most develop cysts
possess macro and micro nucleus |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Sporozoa
motility absent in most except male sex cells
life cycles are complex
in addition to trophozoite stage also
include sporozoite stage |
