Concept explainers
(a)
To describe: The cells of the secondary mycelium of basidiomycetes given in the question.
Introduction: The life cycle of
(b)
To determine: The stage of the life cycle of the basidiomycete cells provided in the given figure.
Introduction: The life cycle of fungi has three different stages. The life cycle of fungi is the basis of classification of fungi. Each member of the group has similar life cycle stages. Formation of sexual spores is a distinct process involving the formation of spore-forming body in each of the group of fungi.
(c)
To draw: The diagram supporting the sequence of next events that take place in the life cycle of basidiomycetes.

- magine that you are conducting research on fruit type and seed dispersal. You submitted a paper to a peer-reviewed journal that addresses the factors that impact fruit type and seed dispersal mechanisms in plants of Central America. The editor of the journal communicates that your paper may be published if you make ‘minor revisions’ to the document. Describe two characteristics that you would expect in seeds that are dispersed by the wind. Contrast this with what you would expect for seeds that are gathered, buried or eaten by animals, and explain why they are different. (Editor’s note: Providing this information in your discussion will help readers to consider the significance of the research).arrow_forwardWhat is the difference between Uniporters, Symporters and Antiporters?
