The Primary role of Fungi - ANSWER-Decomposers- they break things down Modes of Nutrition in Fungi - ANSWER-Heterotrophs with extracellular digestion Exoenzymes - ANSWER-Fungi Release these enzymes outside of the cell wall. Break down complex molecules into smaller organic molecules which can be absorbed. Extracellular Digestion - ANSWER-The release of exoenzymes out side of the cell wall, followed by the absorption of nutrients.. Saprobes - ANSWER-Fungi that feed on non-living/dead ...

What is marine ecology? correct answers The study of interactions between an organism and their abiotic and biotic habitats. And how these interactions affect the distribution and abundance of organisms What is the difference between micro and macroevolutio? correct answers microevolution: changes in genetics over time that lead to new phenotypic features or life history macroevolution: changes in genetics over time that lead to a new species What is commensialism? correct answers A symbi...
