Suppose that we have a population of fungal spores which clearly fall into two size categories, large and small. We incubate these spores on agar and count the number of spores that germinate by producing a single outgrowth or multiple outgrowths. The null hypothesis is that spore size and outgrowth are independent of each other. What is the calculated Chi-Squared value for this set of data for significance level of 0.05? (answer to 3 decimals) Use this handy chi-squared calculator. Small Spore Large Spore Single Outgrowth 10 14 Multiple Outgrowths 22 18

Based on the diagram, how many unique ascospores are produced in each ascus resulting from the cross fertilization of two Ascomycetes fungi? A. 1 B. 2 C. 4 D. 8 Photo attatched
When the Ascomycetes fungus reproduces sexually, mating type A fungi cross fertilize mating type a fungi. The resulting zygotes undergo meiotic and then mitotic division to produce asci with eight ascospores. The ascospores in the asci are ordered and reflect the position of the parental nuclei in the zygote. Use the passage to answer the question. How is the life cycle of Ascomycetes different from that of humans? A. Haploid cells undergo meiosis. B. Haploid cells undergo mitosis. C. Diploid cells undergo meiosis. D. Diploid cells undergo mitosis.
Since dimorphism is a property of fungi, how do you account for thefact that molds grow preferentially in vitro rather than in vivo?

The fungus Botrytis cinerea is a pathogen of plants, and causes high losses of strawberry crops around the world. In Europe, most B. cinerea fungi are killed by fungicides (chemicals sprayed on the crops to kill the fungus). However, some B. cinerea are resistant, and continue to live even when exposed to fungicides. If the currently-used fungicides continue to be sprayed on strawberry crops in Europe, what is expected to happen? (Choose one.) a)The strawberries will eventually become larger and more resistant to fungicides. b)The strawberries will form a beneficial association (mutualism) with the B. cinerea, and both will be resistant to the fungicides. c)Strawberry plants will preferentially be colonized by B. cinerea that are not resistant to fungicides. d) The proportion of B. cinerea that are resistant to fungicides will increase in the population over time, and these fungicides will no longer be effective at killing most of these fungi.

Some fungi can be viewed as coenocytic organisms that exhibit little differentiation. When differentiation does occur, such as in the formation of reproductive structures, it is preceded by septum formation. Why does this occur?
How do the authors of the study interpret the information shown in Figure 3? (Choose one.) Group of answer choices The speed (number of days) at which fig saplings die from wilting disease is much faster when the saplings are inoculated with two species of fungi at the same time, compared to only one of the species. The number of days which saplings survive is significantly longer when fig saplings are inoculated with C. ficicola and F. kuroshium at the same time, compared to just inoculated with C. ficicola. There were significantly higher densities of C. ficicola than of F. kuroshium found in plants suffering from fig wilt disease. The number of saplings dying from fig wilt disease was significantly higher in plants inoculated with C. ficicola than in plants inoculated with F. kuroshium plus C. ficicola.
