Mycorrhyzae is the association between the plant and the fungi, though the literature occasionally call the fungi mycorrhyzae. The fungi get organic food ie. glucose and other compound from 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.
The main difference is that fungi are heterotrophic organisms that obtain nutrition by absorbing organic matter from their environment, while plants are autotrophic organisms that produce their own food through photosynthesis. Additionally, fungi do not have chlorophyll like plants do, which is necessary for photosynthesis.
Fungi are heterotrophic, obtaining nutrients through absorption, while plants are autotrophic, producing their own food through photosynthesis. Fungi have chitin in their cell walls, while plants have cellulose. Fungi do not contain chlorophyll, so they cannot perform photosynthesis, unlike plants. Fungi reproduce through spores, whereas plants reproduce through seeds.
The list of the differences between fungi and plantae is extremely long... * Plants are Photosynthesizers, Fungi are decomposers * Plants and Fungi have completely different cell makeup * Plants come from seeds, Fungi don't The list goes on and on... It seems that the only reason that anyone would even think of classifying them under the same Kingdom name, is that they are both stationary, and cannot go find their own food.
Mycorrhizal fungi help plants communicate by transferring nutrients and chemical signals between them through their network of fungal threads, allowing plants to share resources and information for better growth and defense.
Fungi and plants are multicellular.
Fungi in plant soil can either help or harm plants. Beneficial fungi can improve nutrient uptake and protect plants from diseases, promoting growth. Harmful fungi can cause diseases, hinder nutrient absorption, and stunt growth. Overall, the presence of fungi in plant soil can significantly impact the health and growth of plants.
Mycorrhyzae is the association between the plant and the fungi, though the literature occasionally call the fungi mycorrhyzae. The fungi get organic food ie. glucose and other compound from plants .
Fungi in soil can either help or harm plant growth. Beneficial fungi form partnerships with plants, aiding in nutrient absorption and disease resistance. Harmful fungi can cause diseases that weaken or kill plants.
fungi eats dead logs, or animals. plants make their own food
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.
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.
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.
The main difference is that fungi are heterotrophic organisms that obtain nutrition by absorbing organic matter from their environment, while plants are autotrophic organisms that produce their own food through photosynthesis. Additionally, fungi do not have chlorophyll like plants do, which is necessary for photosynthesis.
Plants demonstrate symbiosis with other organisms, like fungi in the root system, through a mutually beneficial relationship. In this symbiosis, fungi help plants absorb nutrients from the soil, while the plants provide the fungi with sugars produced through photosynthesis. This partnership enhances the growth and health of both organisms.
