What are chytrids?
They are simple algae like fungi of aquatic and soil environments
Is threadlike fungi unicellular?
Ascomycetes and Basidiomycetes are not. Filamentous chytrids and zygomycetes can be considered unicellular if there are no septa in their hyphae. For the most part, threadlike fungi are considered multicellular.
Why is fungi not a animal?
Fungi and plants are different in several ways. Plants are able to photosynthesize (with a few exceptions), have a cell wall of cellulose, have a MLS flaglellar system with multiple flagella, and have vascular tissue. Fungi are not able to photosynthesize, have a cell wall of chitin, have a single posterior flagellum, and do not have vascular tissue. Fungi are much better at exploring the soil for water and nutrients than plants (which is why most plants have a symbiosis with fungi). Animals do not have a cell wall at all. As well, animals are motile whereas most fungi are not (chytrids produce a motile spore). Animals ingest their food while fungi grow into their food. Fungi can produce lysine, and animals cannot.
What are the specific Names of fungi in the chytridiomycota?
Some specific names of fungi in the Chytridiomycota phylum include Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis, which is responsible for the deadly chytridiomycosis disease in amphibians, and Allomyces, a genus of chytrids commonly found in freshwater habitats.
What makes multicellular fungi different then other multicellular organisms?
Yeah
What do Chytrids produce that no other fungi produce?
They produce motile spores called zoospores.
What are the main groups of fungi?
There are five main groups of fungi: Ascomycetes, Basidiomycetes, Chytrids, Deuteromycetes, and Zygomycetes
The fungal group that is most closely related to ancestral fungi are the?
chytridomycota (chytrids).
What are chytrids?

Is true that the chytrids and microsporidian belong to the most ancient lineage of fungi?
I know chytridas do, I do not know about the microsporidian.
The only group of fungi to have a flagellated stage are the?
Chytrids, of which there are four phyla: Blastococladiomycota, Chytridiomycota, Neocallimastigomycota, and Monoblepharidiomycota.
Is threadlike fungi unicellular?
Ascomycetes and Basidiomycetes are not. Filamentous chytrids and zygomycetes can be considered unicellular if there are no septa in their hyphae. For the most part, threadlike fungi are considered multicellular.
Chytrids had previously been classified with protists because they?
Have flagellated zoospores, whereas most fungi lack flagella
What are the examples of fungi?
athletes foot, mushroom, bread mold, yeast, mildewMushrooms, morels, truffles, yeast, chytrids, bread molds, shelf fungi, puff balls.
Why is fungi different fron plants?
Unlike plants fungi are not primary producers. Fungi are heterotrophs, meaning they feed on other life forms.
