Question

Which of the following statements is true regarding mycorrhizal relationships?

		this relationship is a type of parasitism
		bacteria partner with plant roots
		fungi provide energy (ATP) for their partner
		all glomeromycota are mycorrhizal fungi
		no statements above are true

Definition Definition Diverse group of organisms that primarily obtain nutrients through absorption. They range from single-celled yeasts to complex multi-cellular structures such as mushrooms. Fungi play important roles in ecosystems as decomposers, plant symbionts, and even pathogens. They also have practical uses in medicine, food production, and industry.
