Concept explainers

Fungi

Fungi can be single-celled or complex multicellular creatures. They are found in pretty much any natural surroundings; however, they generally live on the land, principally in soil or plant material instead of in the ocean or water. Fungi are the members of the group called the decomposers that live off dead and decaying matters. Fungi assume a significant part in the carbon cycle and its different components. They act as a parasite by causing illnesses like rusts, scabs, or ulcers. In crops, contagious illnesses can prompt critical money-related misfortune for the rancher. An exceptionally modest number of growths cause illnesses in creatures. In people, these incorporate skin illnesses such as competitors' feet, ringworm, and thrush.

Which of the following statements is FALSE about fungi? O A Fungi can be either heterotrophic or autotrophic. O B Septa are divisions between fungal cells with small pores that allow cytoplasm to flow between the cells. O C Fungal cells walls contain chitin, which is the same material found insect exoskeletons. D The fungi and the choanoflagellates are part of a group called the Opisthokonts.

Fungi were once classified in the same kingdom as plants. Which characteristic of fungi resulted in them being placed in a separate kingdom? O Fungi have a nucleus. O Fungi lack chlorophyll. O Fungi are mostly immobile. O Fungi are mostly anaerobic.
Fungi have an extremely high surface-area-to-volume ratio. What is the advantage of this to an organism that gets most of its nutrition through absorption? O This high ratio means that fungi have a thick, fleshy structure that allows the fungi to store more of the food it absorbs. O The larger surface area allows for more material to be transported through the cell membrane. O This high ratio creates more room inside the cells for additional organelles involved in absorption. O The lower volume prevents the cells from drying out too quickly, which can interfere with absorption. MacBook Pro G Search or typ e URL %23 %2$ % & 3 4 5 8 E R Y F G H. K ト

Health professionals refer to fungal skin diseases as "“tineas" and name them according to the region affected. Fungal skin diseases are persistent, in part, because fungi can penetrate deeper layers of skin than can ointments and creams. There are fewer antifungal drugs than ones, and antifungals often have more severe side effects. Reflect on the evolutionary relationships among bacteria, fungi, and humans. 1. List 5 different "Tineas" to show the connection between the name and the body parts affected from them. 2. Are fungi unicellular or multicellular organism? 3. Why it is harder to fight fungi than bacteria? 4. Why antifungals have more severe side effects?
