Do truffles photosynthesis?

No, truffles do not photosynthesize. Truffles are fungi that grow underground in a symbiotic relationship with tree roots, obtaining nutrients from the trees rather than from sunlight like plants do.


Mycorrhiza form a relationship between fungi and which part of vascular plants?

Mycorrhiza form a relationship between fungi and the roots of vascular plants. This symbiotic relationship helps plants absorb nutrients from the soil and provides the fungi with carbohydrates produced by the plant through photosynthesis.


Most fungi that live among the roots of plants are what to the plants?

Some fungi allow an exchange of nutrients between the plant and fungi such as phosphate and nitrates. The fungi also allows for defense against certain insects and pests.


What kind of structure has a symbiotic relationship with fungi in mycorrhizae?

Mycorrhizae are symbiotic relationships between the roots of plants and fungi that act as extensions of the root system. The fungi supply the plant with certain nutrients, and the plant in turn supplies the fungi with carbohydrates.


What two plants have no true stem or roots or leaves?

Algae and mosses are two examples of plants that can lack true stems, roots, and leaves. These plants typically have simple structures that allow them to absorb nutrients and carry out photosynthesis.


Mutualistic fungi that help to provide nutrients to trees shrubs and other plants?

Mycorrhizal fungi form mutualistic relationships with plants by colonizing their roots and aiding in nutrient absorption, particularly phosphorus and nitrogen. These fungi help plants to better access soil nutrients and water, in return receiving sugars from the plant photosynthesis process.


How does the life process of fungi help plants?

These fungi are called mycorrhizae (though, technially, the term "mycorrhizae" refers to the relationship between the fungi and the plants). They grow in or around the roots of a plant and out into the soil. This helps the plant in two ways: First, the fungal hyphae are a lot smaller than the plant's roots and can get into smaller places. Second, they greatly increase the surface area over which nutrients can be absorbed without a huge increase in volume.


Are fungi that live at the the roots of plants beneficial to the plants?

yes


What do fungi have instead of roots?

Fungi have thread-like structures called hyphae that serve a similar function to roots in plants. These hyphae help fungi to absorb nutrients from their environment and can form a network called mycelium to aid in nutrient uptake and communication within the fungal organism.


Most fungi that live among the roots of plants are beneficial to the plants?

No


What Ways plants fungi and animals obtain nutrients?

Everything needs some sort of nutrients to live. Fungi get their nutrients from photosynthesis, plants do the same and obtain it from the roots, animals obtain their nutrients from eating plants, and other animals.


What do plants absorb through their roots?

Plants absorb water and nutrients through their roots.
