1
Q
Chytridiomycota (Batrachochytrium)
A
- aquatic
- flagellated fungi
- haploid gametes by sexual reproduction
- diploid zoospores by asexual reproduction
2
Q
Zygomycota (Rhizopus,Pilobolus)
A
- multinucleated (lack septa)
- fusion of hyphae leads directly to formation of zygote in zygorsporangium (meiosis occurs before germination
- asexual is more common
3
Q
Glomeromycota (glomus)
A
- form arbuscular Mycorrhizae
- multinucleated hyphae lack septa
- produce asexually
4
Q
Ascomycota (truffles, morels)
A
- in sexual reproduction, ascospores are formed inside sac called ascus
- also does asexual reproduction
5
Q
Basidiomycota (mushrooms, toadstools, rusts)
A
- sexual reproduction, basidiospores are borne on club-shaped structures called basidia
- asexual reproduction is occasional
6
Q
Neocallimastigomycota ( Neocallimastix)
A
- lacks mitichondria
- anaerobic metabolism to grow in guts of hervibores
- can degrade cellulose
7
Q
Blastocladiomycota (allomyces)
A
- alternation of generations (like plants)
- nuclear cap composed of membrane-bound ribosomes
8
Q
Lycophyta (club mosses)
A
- homo/heterosporous
- sperm motile
- external water for fetrilization
9
Q
Pterophyta (ferns)
A
- primary homosporous ( few hetero)
- sperm motile
- water needed for fertilization
- leaves uncoil as they mature
- sporophyte & gametophyte are photosynthetic
10
Q
Pterophyta (horsetails)
A
- homosporous
- sperm motile
- stems ribbed(jointed)
- non/photosynthetic
- leaves scale like, in whorls,
- mature = nonphotosynthetic
- one genus
11
Q
Pterophyta ( whisk ferns)
A
- homosporous
- motile sperm
- no difference between root and shoot
- no leaves
- one genera has scale-like extension and the other leaflike appendages
12
Q
Coniferophyta (Pinophyta, conifer)
A
- heterosporous seeds
- non motile sperm
- sperm conducted by pollen tube
- mostly needlelike leaves or scalelike
- produces seeds in cones
13
Q
Cycadophyta (Cycads)
A
- heterosporous
- sperm flagellated and motile (confined within a polen tube
- palmlike plants with pinnate leaves
- secondary growth is slow in comparison to cornifer
- seeds in cones
14
Q
Gnetophyta (gnetophytes)
A
- heterosporous
- sperm non-motile
- conducted to egg by polen tube
- only gymnosperm with vessels
- trees, shrubs and vines
15
Q
Anthophyta (flowering plants; gymnosperm)
A
- heterosporous
- sperm non-motile
- conducted to egg by a pollen tube
- seeds enclosed within the fruit
- leaves varied in size and form
- herbs, vines, shrubs and trees
- main contributor to foods
