• Are heterothrops,which means that they

cannot make their own food.


 They get their energy and the chemicals
they need by growing on a source of
food.
 They release chemicals that digest the
substance on which they grow and then
absorb the nutrients from from the
digested food.
 They grow in moist,warm places such as
moist food,damp tree barks,lawns coated
with dew,damp forest floors,and even wet
bathroom tiles.
They obtain
their food from
the remains of
dead organisms.
1.They feed by
absorbing their
food.
2.They use spores to
reproduce.
 Are made up of long threadlike
structures.
 Hyphae branch and twist together in
many ways,making the fungi appear
in various shapes.
Are continous thread of
fungal hyphae.
It is the living material inside
a cell that contains many
nuclei.
 Is a structural layer surrounding some
types of cells,just outside the cell
membrane.
 It can be tough,flexible,and sometimes
rigid.
 It provides the cell with both structural
support and protection,and also acts as
a filtering mechanism and the cell wall is
composed of peptidoglycan.
 Is an organelle found in eukaryotic cells.
 Inside its fully enclosed nuclear
membrane,it contains the majority of the
cell’s genetic material.
 This material is organized as dna
molecules,along with chromosomes.
 Are so small and light that they can be
carried winds to great distances.
 If it is lands on a place where living
conditions are favorable,then it can
sprout and develop hyphae.
 They are shaped like umbrellas.
 Is the fleshy,spore-bearing fruiting body
of a fungus,typically produced above
ground on soil or on its food source.
Itis on the top
of the stalk.
Itis the thin sheets
of tissue which
extend from the
stalk to the outer
edge of the cap.
The stalk decorated
with a structure
called ring,which
resembles a very
short skirt.
Itis a stemlike
structure in a
mushroom.
 It is fungus consisting of a single cell.
 Are very useful in the production of
bread,vitamins,and evn vaccines like the vaccine
for hepatitis B.
 Bakers add yeast to the dough or the mixture of
flour,water,sugar,salt,and other ingredients.
Itis a portion of a
matured yeast cell
springs from the cell
wall and forms a tiny
bud .
 Are used in food processing.
 Tofu or bean curd,soy beans,and
cheese are just some of the many
processed foods that use molds.
 A scottish scientist,found out why this
treatment worked.
 He discovered that the mold
PENICILLIUM produces a substance that
kill certain infection-causing bacteria.
 He called the substance PENICILLIN.
 Since its discovery,penicilin has helped
save million of lives.
