Chapter 12, Problem 4CT
Summary Introduction
To answer:
Distinguish between filamentous
Introduction:
Fungi are unicellular/ multicellular or multinucleate organisms having filamentous structures called hyphae. Fungi are eukaryotes with the heterotrophic mode of nutrition. Vegetative growth of fungi takes place with the help of hyphae. Algae are unicellular to multicellular prokaryotic organisms. Mode of nutrition in algae is autotrophs but some of the green algae, brown algae (dinoflagellates) have become heterotrophs (colorless algae). Algae and fungi have a cell wall containing cellulose and chitin as their characteristic structures.
