Scientists estimate that there are between 700,000 and 5.1 million fungi on the planet. From your reading of "The fungi: 1, 2, 3

... 5.1 million species?" by Meredith Blackwell, briefly describe (2–4 sentences) two reasons that this estimate is so broad. In other words, why are recent estimates of fungal species diversity so varied?

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

1. This is because there is varying degrees or amounts of habitats and areas that yet to be assessed and examined when carrying out the estimates of fungal species diversity which leads to a broad range of estimates.

2.  Also, with the increments in the numbers of different species accumulation that has currently been discovered; a 1.2% increase in species is discovered every year,

Hence, it is ideal to conclude that a large number of species are being discovered in the later research which is making the estimates to be different.

Number the steps of the binary fission process in correct order
kari74 [83]

Step 1:

The bacterium cell must copy its DNA so the new cells will have DNA. DNA or, deoxyribonucleic acid, has all of the information the bacterium will need to survive, so it is important it gets copied. The DNA is tightly wound so it is in a neat package called a chromosome.

Steps 2 and 3:

The bacterium now grows larger. This allows for some separation between the two DNA copies that are inside the cell. A division develops in the middle of the bacterium. This division eventually completely divides the bacterium in half. This is called cytokinesis.

Step 4:

Each cell is now called a daughter cell and they separate.

The steps of binary fission

binary fission

Binary fission results in two identical daughter cells. This is a type of asexual reproduction, or creating genetically identical offspring. If humans were able to reproduce using binary fission, it would look something like this: your mother or father would grow larger, and inside all of his or her DNA would be copied. Eventually your parent would split in half creating an identical clone.

Why is sporophyete referred as semi parasite
Vera_Pavlovna [14]
It is because the moss sporophyte have specialized pores which is called the "stomata." It also supports photosynthesis because it allows the carbon dioxide and oxygen between outside air and sporophyte inside.
