Introduction of fungi - Coggle Diagram

- - - - yeasts grow on soils, on plant surfaces, and in the human body
        
        yeasts are used to make bread and beer
  - - - Multicellular fungi can look like plants.
        
        Scientists have determined, however, that fungi are different enough to belong in their own kingdom.
- - - - fungi have cells walls composed of chitin
  - - - These filaments are the basic structural units that make up the body of a multicellular fungus
        
        Hyphae grow at their tips and branch repeatedly to form a netlike mass called a mycelium
        
        The mycelium grows underground. It provides the fungus with nutrients.
  - - - The septa have large pores that allow
        nutrients, cytoplasm, organelles, and, in
        some cases, nuclei to flow between cells
- - - - Saprophytic fungi, such as the bracket
        fungus are decomposers and recycle
        nutrients from dead organisms back
        into food webs.
- - - - Budding
      - Fragmentation
      - Spore production
