Chapter 32.3- Diversity

Question 1

What is the evolutional shift specific to chytrids

Answer 1

• Chitin in cell walls
• they lack hyphae
• they do not have a mycellium
• they are aquatic
• they disperse through flagella spores

Question 2

What is the evolutional shift specific Zygomycetes?

Answer 2

• they have a hyphae
• sexual reproduce when two hyphae tips fuse together
• disperse sporangia through their light pigments

Question 3

What is the evolutional shift specific to basidiomycetes?

Answer 3

• regular septa
• complex fruiting bodies

Question 4

What are ascomycetes?

Answer 4

• sac fungi (because nuclear fusion and meiosis happens in an elongated sac)
• fungal partner is lichens
• fruiting bodies that contain both dikaryotic and haploid cells
• ectomycorrhizal fungi

Question 5

Characteristics of dikarya and the different groups?

Answer 5

• produces regular septa during mitosis
• ascomycetes
• basidiomycetes

Question 6

what is Glomeromycota?

Answer 6

• they are associated with plant roots
• they cannot be grown independently from their parents

Question 7

What does the proliferation of dikaryotic ascomycetes cells lead to?

Answer 7

produces many sci

Question 8

What are Basidiomycota?

Answer 8

takes places in a club fungi because nuclear fusion and meiosis are club shaped
- contain three main groups smuts, ruts, and mushrooms

Question 9

Why are the gills on Basidiomycota important?

Answer 9

they allow alots of basidia to produced on a single fruiting body
