Summary Introduction

To indicate: Whether the given diagram is from ascomycete, zygomycete, or basidiomycete life cycle and to identify the labeled structures along with the production of spores by sexual or asexual means.

Introduction: Fungi are eukaryotic organisms that are distributed widely on the Earth and are heterotrophs. They play an important ecological role. Most fungi are found to be free-living in the soil and some form symbiotic association with plants. The current classification of fungi includes seven phyla, Ascomycota, Basidiomycota, Zygomycota, Glomeromycota, and others.

Place the following events of the SEXUAL lifecycle of a Basidiomycota in chronological order from a spore landing on a substrate through the production of a spore.Basidiospore lands on a substrate Options: plasmogamy, heterokaryotic hyphae/mycelium, meiosis, heterokaryotic fruiting body, karyogamy within a basidium, haploid hyphae
In the following diagram of a black bread mold (Rhizopus stolonifer), identify the following structures of a multicellular fungus: mycelium, rhizoids, stolon, sporangium, sporangiophore, sporangiospores.   Note: Sample fungus herein is not found in aquatic environment.  Rhizopus stolonifer is a common agent of decomposition of stored foods; they are terrestrial in habitat.
Distinguish among fungi that are haploid, dikaryotic, or diploid by completing the following statements, referring to the figure as necessary. n+n sexual n diploid contains paired haploid nuclei dikaryotic 2n A haploid asexual Saved B Fungi reproduce both sexually and asexually. In terrestrial fungi, reproduction occurs in three stages. One stage, depicted in part A of the figure above, is termed point each cell is First, days, months, or years, the Another stage, depicted in part B of the figure above, is termed stage takes its name from the term for a hypha that each cell is C at which 20 hyphae pair up. Sometimes immediately, other times after hyphae make contact and fuse... This at which point Upon fusion, the hyphae are at the stage represented by part C of the figure above, stage, at which point each cell is termed the Reset *
