- Identify mycorrhizal structure that penetrates into plant roots and reasons behind this. Also, explain the roles of mycorrhizae in plant defense against plant disease.arrow_forwardDescribe the important ecological role of mycorrhiza.arrow_forwardLichens are an example of a symbiotic relationship between and Phaeophyta, Oomycota Chlorophyta, Oomycota O Phaeophyta, Fungi O Chlorphyta, Fungiarrow_forward

Possess cells which are dead at maturity; cell walls occupying 90% of its cell volume Possess hydroids and leptoidsarrow_forward#7 Three mushroom-forming species are adapted to live in the desert. How are desert mushrooms adapted to desert life? Please select all correct answers. a b d e By dispersing their spores all at once. Caps stay closed to conserve water. They only grow underground. They release spores continually for days or weeks. By digesting dead organic matter.arrow_forwardLooking at this sample of a fungus, to what main group would it belong to?
