Biology Module 18
Across
- 2. spores produced by the ascus in sac fungi
- 4. strong, flexible polysaccharide found in the cell walls of all fungi and in the exoskeletons of insects and crustaceans
- 6. structure that collects the excess water from the cytoplasm and expels it from the cell
- 10. a sac or case in which spores are produced
- 12. in sac fungi, a reproductive structure where a zygote forms during sexual reproduction
- 17. in sac fungi, hypha that produces spores on its tip for asexual reproduction
- 22. fruiting body of club fungi
- 24. in sac fungi, a saclike structure where spores develop during sexual reproduction
- 25. concentration of dissolved substances is lower in the solution on one side of a membrane than the concentration on the other side
- 26. group of cells that join together to form a close association
- 27. spore produced in basidia during sexual reproduction of club fungi
- 28. a reproductive heploid cell that develops into a new organism
- 29. a mold reproductive structure that contains a haploid nucleus
Down
- 1. symbiotic relationship between a specialized fungus and plant roots
- 3. in fungi, netlike mass created by the hyphae as they grow at their tips and branch repeatedly
- 5. organism that cannot make its own food and must get its energy and nutrients from other organisms
- 7. in mold, hypha that spreads across the surface of food
- 8. cross-wall that divides the hyphae of a fungus into cells
- 9. in molds, hypha that penetrates food and absorbs nutrients
- 11. life cycle of algae that takes two generations-one that reproduces sexually and one that reproduces asexually–to complete a life cycle
- 13. tubular filament that is the basic structural unit of multicellular fungi
- 14. unicellular, heterotrophic, animal-like protist
- 15. organism that feeds on dead organisms or organic wastes
- 16. in fungi, the reproductive structure that grows above the ground
- 18. microscopic protozoan that causes disease in insects
- 19. temporary extensions of cytoplasm, used for feeding and locomotion
- 20. emit light
- 21. having long projections that propel organisms with a whiplike motion
- 22. the process of fungi decomposing organic materials in the pollutants into harmless substances
- 23. club-shaped hypha that produces spores in club fungi
