Categories of Fungi
1. Multicellular
– Most fungi
– Do not contain chloroplasts
2. Unicellular
– “Yeasts”

Cell Walls
• Plants - made of cellulose
• Fungi - made of chitin
–Chitin is strong and flexible

Fungi Parts - Hyphae
• Threadlike filaments that make up the basic structure of the fungi’s body (all parts)
• Provide support• Provide a large surface area for
nutrient absorption • Fig. 20.2 (p. 577)

Fungi Parts - Mycelium
• A netlike mass made up many hyphae
• Formed below ground
• Absorb nutrients• Fig. 20.2

Fungi Parts - Fruiting Body
• Reproductive structure
• Above ground portion• Fig. 20.2

Obtaining Nutrients & Energy
1. Through Decomposition• Saprophytic fungi - feeds
on dead organisms or organic wastes
• Recycle nutrients• Fig. 20.4
![Page 8: Fungi Chapter 20. Categories of Fungi 1.Multicellular –Most fungi –Do not contain chloroplasts 2.Unicellular –Yeasts](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082917/551587f655034674578b573c/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Obtaining Nutrients & Energy
2. Through Parasitism
–Absorb nutrients from living cells of another organisms (a host)
–Fig. 20.4
![Page 9: Fungi Chapter 20. Categories of Fungi 1.Multicellular –Most fungi –Do not contain chloroplasts 2.Unicellular –Yeasts](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082917/551587f655034674578b573c/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Obtaining Nutrients & Energy
3. Through Mutualism
–With another organism, such as a plant or alga
• Ex: mycelia on a root of a soybean plant– Fungus receives sugar from the host plant– Mycelia increase water uptake and mineral absorption
for the host plant– Fig. 20.4

Branches of Fungi1. Chytrids
• yeast2. Common Molds
• bread mold3. Sac Fungi
• morels & truffles, yeast, penicillin producer4. Club Fungi
• mushrooms• Fig. 20.8

Imperfect Fungi
• Very diverse group
• Lack a sexual stage of reproduction
–Called “Imperfect Fungi”
![Page 12: Fungi Chapter 20. Categories of Fungi 1.Multicellular –Most fungi –Do not contain chloroplasts 2.Unicellular –Yeasts](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082917/551587f655034674578b573c/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Benefits of Fungi• Decomposers - recycle nutrients• Medical uses - penicillin (antibiotic),
reduce high blood pressure, control excessive bleeding, treat migtaine headaches, promote contractions during childbirth, prevent organ rejection in organ transplant patients
• Food - mushrooms, yeast, truffles• Bioremediation - cleaning the
environment of pollutants

Harmful Fungi• American elm trees & American chestnut
trees killed by certain fungi• Agricultural crops damaged• Can act as parasites in humans & other
organisms–Athlete’s foot, ringworm, yeast
infections• Fig. 20.15

Moldy Bread
• Why should you throw away the whole loaf of bread, even if the mold only appeared on one piece?
