Cattle, like other some other animals such as goats, deer, and giraffes, have billions of microbes i ii inside their guts which help them digest their food The large microbe is a type of p pp protist. The creature that looks like a tadpole attached to the side of the protist is a f ff fungal spore. The smaller, rod-shaped beasts lining the underside of the protist are b bb bacteria. 8
9
Associations between fungi and plants Mycorrhizae are symbiotic relationships between fungi and plant roots (the term means literally 'fungus root'). Perhaps more than 80% of the species of higher plants have these relationships 9
10
Lichens Mutualistic relationship between a fungus and an algae (or a photosynthetic bacteria).
11
Parasitic fungi Some species are p pp predatory fungi that live in the soil and ensnare animals such as nematodes (roundworms) in a loop of hyphae. Human-Athletes foot, ringworm 1010

Spores Sexual & asexual R e p r o d u c t i v e s t r u c t u r e s 1212 Each spore has the potential to generate another individual of the species.
14
Spores can be spread out (dispersed) by wind, water, & animals.

Usefulness of Fungi Fungi are valuable e ee economically as a Antibiotics, vitamins various industrially important chemicals, such as Acetone, Enzymes fermentation processes, as in the production of alcoholic beverages, vinegar, cheese, bread dough Extremely important in soil renewal, through the d dd decomposition of organic matter 1717
20
Yeasts single cells, produce daughter cells either by b bb budding or by binary fission the common baker's yeast- Saccharomyces cerevisiae 1818

Fairy Rings The mycelium grows in a circle and mushrooms grow on the edges of the mycelium, so the mushrooms grow in a circle! 21 Something COOL.
