- What is diversity? Explain diversity in fungiarrow_forwardSome fungi can be viewed as coenocytic organisms that exhibit little differentiation. When differentiation does occur, such as in the formation of reproductive structures, it is preceded by septum formation. Why does this occur?arrow_forwardMany fungi produce chemicals that inhibit bacterial growth. Why might the genes encoding these chemicals be adaptive to fungi?arrow_forward
- Why does the mycelial morphology of fungi make them especially effective saprophytes?arrow_forwardThe vegetative stage of fungi can be called various terms. What are two terms that might be used?arrow_forwardFungi were once classified in the same kingdom as plants. Which characteristic of fungi resulted in them being placed in a separate kingdom?arrow_forward

Note: download the images of Mnium from this link and arrange them in the exact sequence to make the lifecycle. Lifecycle structures with cell division: Meiosis, fertilization within archegonium, capsule (sporangium), spores (n), protonema (n) (Image), male gametophyte (n) (Image), female gametophyte (n) (Image), antheridia (Image), archegonia (Image), sperm, egg, water, zygote (2n), embryo, young growing sporophyte (2n), mature sporophyte (2n) (Image), rhizoids. You can insert the non-image part, using the textbox and fill out the suitable s text.
