How do fungi and bacteria contribute towards an ecosystem?

They are a very important part of any ecosystem. Fungi and bacteria are decomposes.


How are bacteria and fungi part of a cycle?

Bacteria and fungi play roles in nutrient cycling by decomposing organic matter and recycling nutrients back into the ecosystem. Bacteria break down complex organic compounds into simpler forms, which can then be taken up by plants and other organisms. Fungi are also important decomposers that break down organic matter and help in nutrient cycling.


How is water related to life?

Water is a part of all of life. All animals, plants, bacteria, and fungi need to drink water in order to survive.


How bacteria differ from fungi?

Fungi is part of the Eukarya domain... Having more than one cell, and having cells with a nucleus. If their size doesn't tell you how much they differ, then consider the fact that Fungi are decomposers, feeding off plant and animal life, and bacteria have uncountable ways of feeding. As an added note, Fungi are stationary. Bacteria can move around.


What cycle depends on the bacteria in these nodules?

Then cycle that depends on bacteria to convert nitrogen gas into ammonia is the nitrogen cycle. This is the part of the cycle called nitrogen fixation.


Is mold a type of archea?

Mold is a part of the kingdom fungi. The kingdom archaebacteria has bacteria and algae, but does not contain any fungi.

What group of fungi form ascospores during sexual reproduction?

Ascomycetes is the group of fungi that form ascospores during sexual reproduction. These fungi produce ascospores within a sac-like structure called an ascus. This process is typically part of the fungal life cycle known as the Ascomycota.


Compare and contrast the roles that bacteria and fungi play in decomposition?

Both bacteria and fungi are important decomposers in breaking down organic matter. Bacteria tend to be more efficient in breaking down simpler compounds, while fungi excel at breaking down complex materials like lignin and cellulose. Bacteria work faster and are more numerous in warmer environments compared to fungi.


Which is not biological hazard Bone fungi bacteria or parasite?

Bone is not a biological hazard, as it is a part of the human body and is not considered harmful unless it is infected or damaged. Fungi, bacteria, and parasites are all biological hazards that can cause health issues.


Which of the following use spores for reproduction?

Plants, fungi, and some bacteria use spores for reproduction. In fungi, spores are produced through processes like meiosis or mitosis, allowing for genetic diversity and dispersal. In plants, particularly non-flowering types like ferns and mosses, spores are part of their life cycle, enabling them to reproduce without seeds. Certain bacteria also produce spores, typically as a survival mechanism rather than for reproduction.


What part of the nitrogen cycle deals with the conversion of nitrogen and waste products or dead organisms into ammonia?

Ammonification is the part of the nitrogen cycle that involves the conversion of nitrogen in waste products or dead organisms into ammonia by decomposers like bacteria and fungi. This process releases ammonia back into the environment for use by plants in assimilation.
