Chapter 29 Question 15 6 of 14 I Review Part A Studies have shown that in some forest ecosystems carbon can move from one tree to another via mycorrhizal fungi. Which of the following features of fungal biology enables this? O Fungal cells have flagella, which can help with movement of materials. O Fungal cells have large numbers of transporter proteins for moving digested materials around the mycelia. O The cells of fungal hyphae are connected by pores that allow passage of cytoplasm from cell to cell. O Mycorrhizae form symbiotic associations with bacteria that assist with transport.
