The most familiar and economically important gymnosperms, including pines, spruces, firs, etc. Leaves are needle-like.
rarest group; closest to angiosperms; Live in hot deserts and tropical rain forests; vine-like
-bread molds-terrestrial-zygospores-non-septate-sexual and asexualex: Rhizopus stolonifera, black bread mold
fern structures/fronds in which spores are produced
Cycadophyta, Ginkgophyta, Coniferophyta, Gnetophyta
No! Their leaves resemble palm leaves and have a wax coating
An evolutionary pattern in which many species evolve from a single ancestral species; in this case, bryophytes
-dual organisms/composite-fungi and bacteria-symbiotic relationship between asco or basidiomycetes and photosynthetic algae or bacteria-algae obtain nutrients, fungi obtain energy-grow in places they couldn't individually (never in air-polluted places)
palm-like/fern-like Gymnosperms that grow in tropical or subtropical areas; look like palm trees with cones
The photosynthetic pigment of brown algae
having two haploid nuclei per cell, one from each parent, in a fungal mycelium; separate packages of DNA. Still diploid but not fused yet
-similar life cycle -store energy as starch-cellulose cell walls -photosynthetic pigments (chlorophyll a and b)
Coenocytic hyphae are nonseptate, also called aseptate, meaning they are one long cell that is not divided into compartments
Member of a group of fungi characterized by saclike structures called asci that produce spores in sexual reproduction. -higher evolution-microscopic spores-yeast-terrestrial-septate hyphae-sexual and asexual-dikaryotic-noncoenocyticEx: morels, truffles
-crustose (in rock)-foliose (leaf-like)-fruticose (attach at one point and grows like a vine)
-mostly terrestrial-septate-dikaryotic-sexual and asexual reproduction; budding, spores, fragmentation-rusts, smuts, shelf, puffballs, toadstools
macroscopic, photosynthetic plant-like protists; sexual and asexual reproduction
1. Eukaryotic Heterotrophic2. Extracellular Digestion/saprophytic3. Chitin-Based Cell wall4. Most fungi are made up of filaments called Hyphae5. multicellular, except yeast6. glycogen storage7. terrestrial8. sexual or asexual reproduction
-multicellular eukaryotes-starch-cellulose cell wall-chloroplasts-photoautotrophic-mostly terrestrial-alternation of generations
Infectious RNA molecules that infect plants
