Definition
The cells of all fungi (except for yeast) are arranged in structures called hyphae
Hyphae are the branching, threadlike tubes that make up the of multicellular fungi
What a fungi looks like depends on how the hyphae are arranged
The hyphae have digestive chemicals that break down the food into smaller substances that the fungus can absorb |

Definition
When there is adequate moisture and food, fungi make spores
Cells at the tips of the hyphae divide to form spores
The spores grow into fungi that are genetically to the parent |

| Fungi Asexual v Sexual (genetic exchange) |
|
Definition
The hyphae of two fungi will grow together and is exchanged
Eventually a new, shared structure grows from the joined hyphae and produces
The spores develop into fungi that are different than both parents |

Definition
Many fungi break down the chemicals in dead plant matter returning vital nutrients to the soil
Without fungi performing this job, Earth could potentially be buried under dead plants and animals |

| Fungi Lichen How does each part of a Lichen Benefit |
|
Definition
A consists of a fungus and an algae or bacteria that live together in a mutualistic relationship
The fungus benefits from the food produced by the algae or autotrophic bacteria
The algae/bacteria obtains shelter, water, and minerals through the fungus
Over time, break down rock into soil in which other organisms are able to grow |

vascular:
plants with good systems and get food through their roots |

Cell Cycle
Interphase/Mitosis/Cytokinesis |
|
Definition
interphase:
First stage of cell cycle, cell grows, makes copy of DNA, and prepares to divide into two daughter cells
Mitosis:
stage when cell's nucleus divides into two new nuclei, has four parts; prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase
Cytokinesis:
final stage of cell cycle, cytoplasm divides, organelles are divided between two new cellsī |
