i. Name the chemical which is found in the cell wall of fungi.
ii. Mention the basic structure of fungi.
iii. Give some examples of fungi.
iv. What is the ideal condition for their growth?
Answers
Answer:
Explanation:
i. The major constituents of the fungal cell wall are chitin, glucans, and glycoproteins.
Chitin is a structurally important component of the fungal cell wall located closest to the plasma membrane. The composition of the outer layer varies, depending on the fungal species, morphotype, and growth stage.
ii.A mass of hyphae make up the body of a fungus, which is called a mycelium (plural, mycelia). The hyphae of most fungi are divided into cells by internal walls called septa (singular, septum). Septa usually have little pores that are large enough to allow ribosomes, mitochondria and sometimes nuclei to flow among cells.
iii. Sac fungi,Chytrids, Slime molds,Eomycota,Zygomycota
iv. Fungi grow best in warm temperatures. Some species of fungi do grow better at warm temperatures (70-90°F), but there are some that thrive in very high temperatures of 130-150°F and some that will thrive in very low temperatures below 32°F (below freezing).
