  2. Class Challenge Who can do the most sit-ups in one minute!?!

  3. Next week’s class challenge Who can grow the most unique mold? Everyone has to participate in this !!! Colorful Prolific What other categories???

  4. Questions from this week’s homework

  5. Question 1 What are these pictures an example of ?

  6. Questions 2 - 4 Members of phylum Pyrrophyta are often referred to as _________________. They have two ____________. One species in this phylum, Gymnodinium brevis, have blooms that are called ____________.

  7. Question 5 5. What is Red Tide?

  8. What are the large deposits of diatoms called? • List two uses of these deposits?

  9. Question 1 What are these pictures an example of ? DIATOMS

  10. Questions 2 - 4 Members of phylum Pyrrophyta are often referred to as DINOFLAGLETTES. They have two FLAGELLA. One species in this phylum, Gymnodinium brevis, have blooms that are called RED TIDE.

  11. What is Red Tide? 5. Red tide is an algae bloom of dinoflagellates, which belong to phylum Pyrrophyta.

  12. 6. What are the large deposits of diatoms called? Diatomaceous earth 7. List two uses of these deposits? Abrasives and filters

  13. Kingdom Fungi

  14. Kingdom Fungi In a single autumn, the average elm tree will drop as much as 400 pounds of leaves on the ground. If it were not for fungi and other decomposers, those leaves would continue to pile up until the tree choked on its own dead leaves in just a few seasons. Because of decomposers, the leaves will be broken down into chemicals that can then be re-used by the tree and other organisms in creation.

  15. Kingdom Fungi Dr. Wile

  16. General characteristics of Fungi Saprophytic: Feeds on remains of dead organisms. Parasitic: Feeds on living host. Not as common. Extracellular digestion: Digest their food outside of their body. Spore reproduction: All produce spores for reproduction.

  17. Mycelium: The part of the fungus responsible for extracellular digestion and absorption of the digested food. Hypha: A filament of fungal cells.

  18. General Structure of a Mushroom See figure 4.1 (page 98)

  19. Mycelium The mycelium is not a root system for the mushroom. This is the main part of the mushroom. Each strand is a hypha.

  20. Anatomy and Life Cycle

  21. Hyphae In some fungi, the hyphae are composed of individual cells separated from one another by cell walls, called Septate Hypha (Figure 4.2) Other fungi have hyphae that look like one big cell. There are no walls, and the nuclei are spread throughout the hypha. These are called Nonseptate hyphae.

  22. Hypha Even when a fungus is composed of septate hypha, its cells are not completely separated from one another because the pores in the cell walls allow cytoplasm to be passed between the cells. This is a characteristic that is unique to kingdom Fungi.

  23. Colonial protistans and monerans have cells that group together, but the cells do not exchange cytoplasm. Plants and animals are multicellular, but their individual cells are completely separate; they do not exchange cytoplasm. In kingdom Fungi, the cells are not completely separate.

  24. Rhizoid hypha Is a hypha that is imbedded in the material on which the fungus grows. If the hypha is part of the mycelium, it is called a rhizoid hypha. These are responsible for supporting the fungus and digesting the food. They are considered the main body of the fungus.

  25. Other types of HyphaFigure 4.3 Aerial hypha: is not imbedded in the material upon which the fungus grows. This hypha sticks up in the air. It can do one of three things: absorb oxygen from the air, produce spores or asexually reproduce to form new filaments. If the hypha performs one of these jobs, it is further specified as either a sporophore or a stolon.

  26. Sporophore: Specialized aerial hypha that produces spores. Stolon: An aerial hypha that asexually reproduces to make more filaments. Haustorium: A hypha of a parasitic fungus that enters the host’s cells, absorbing nutrients directly from the cytoplasm.

  27. Chitin Most fungi have cells walls that contain chitin. This is a chemical that provides toughness and flexibility. This chemical makes fungus hardy, it provides protection, like an armor. It is the same chemical found in shells (exoskeletons) of arthropods (spiders, beetles, ants and lobsters).

  28. Reproduction in Kingdom Fungi

  29. The sexual reproduction that usually occurs in fungi involves forming specialized structures called fruiting bodies. Once the fruiting body is formed, it rises out of the mycelium and releases its spores. The cap and stalk that we normally call a mushroom are just parts of the fruiting body of the mycelium of a fungus.

  30. Although spore formation is the reproductive mode common to all fungi, most can also reproduce by other asexual means. The hyphae cells in the mycelium can reproduce asexually, increasing the size of the mycelium

  31. Also when the stolon is formed, the cells within it will reproduce asexually , lengthening the stolon. After the stolon reaches a certain length, it will begin to reproduce into hyphae that will form the mycelium of a new fungus.
