- Health professionals refer to fungal skin diseases as “tineas” and name them according to the region affected (TABLE 23.1). Fungal skin diseases are persistent, in part because fungi can penetrate deeper layers of skin than can ointments and creams. There are fewer antifungal drugs than antibacterial ones, and antifungals often have more severe side effects. Reflect on the evolutionary relationships among bacteria, fungi, and humans. Why it is harder to fight fungi than bacteria?arrow_forwardComplete the following table distinguishing the true fungi phyla based on reproduction. SEXUAL reproduction through conjugation of 2 different mating strains ASEXUAL reproduction by conidial ASEXUAL reproduction by spores (produced in sporangia) ASEXUAL reproduction by conidia (produced on tips of conidiophores) or budding Do not perform SEXUAL reproduction. SEXUAL reproduction by fusion of 2 mating types of monokaryotic hyphae. Resulting dikaryotic mycelium often develops basidiomata SEXUAL reproduction through the union of male and female structures, followed by formation of asci ASEXUAL reproduction by zoospores (produced in zoosporangia) ASEXUAL reproduction is rare, but can occur by conidia. SEXUAL reproduction through fusion of two motile or non-motile gameres PHYLUM Chytridiomycota The Chytrids Zygomycota: The Coenocytic True Fungi Ascomycota: The Sac Fungi Basidiomycota: The Club Fungi Deuteromycota: The Imperfect Fungi ASEXUAL SEXUAL REPRODUCTION REPRODUCTIONarrow_forwardfill in the table pleasearrow_forward

Group of answer choices zygomycota basidiomycota glomeromycota ascomycotaarrow_forwardHow are members of the kingdom Eubacteria similar to members of the kingdom Protista? How are members of the kingdom Eubacteria different from members of the kingdom Protista? How do fungi get their food? ________________________________________________ Why are plants and fungi placed in separate kingdoms? _______________________________________ How has technology affected classification? _________________________________________________ You are a taxonomist who has just discovered a new organism and you have to place it into one of the kingdoms. The organism seems to make its own food by utilizing its chlorophyll. The organism is only one cell big and is capable of moving freely. In addition to chlorophyll, the organism has several other organelles, including a nucleus. Which kingdom does your organism belong to?
