Answer:

The hyphae of fungus serve as the main mode of vegetative growth.

Mycelia and hyphae are use to absorb nutrients from other organisms.

Explanation:

Fungi are either unicellular or multicellular organisms that are found in moist, slightly acidic and low oxygen environment. They are heterotrophs and decomposers.

Their cell walls are rigid and are composed of chitin and glucans. They are characterized by long filamentous structure called hypae. The structures of hypae form the mycelia.

Apply concepts How did you know which bases to use when you transcribed the DNA sequence to mRNA codons?

allsm [11]

In transcription, the mRNA strand is formed by complementary base pairing of the template DNA strand. However we should note that the nitrogenous bases in mRNA are Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine and

Uracil

, while those in DNA are Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine and

Thymine

So the mRNA strand would be formed by matching the

A in DNA with U in mRNA

T in DNA with A in mRNA

C in DNA with G in mRNA

and

G in DNA with C in mRNA

ella [17]

The release of large quantities of merozoites into circulation at one time is due to a form of reproduction by Plasmodium known as exoerythrocytic schizogony. The intracellular parasite (inside the hepatocytes) undergoes an asexual replication known as exoerythrocytic schizogony. Exoerythrocytic schizogony culminates in the production of merozoites which are released into the bloodstream. This is the end of the asexual reproductive stage. The next target is the red blood cells where the merozoites become gametocytes.

If an analogy were to be made between the function of different cell organelles and the services provided by different companies

insens350 [35]

The FedEx of the cell are the vesicles. Vesicles are the structures in which many cell materials are packed and transported. Vesicles are cellular organelles that are composed of a lipid bilayer and they function as cellular envelopes to transport cell materials from one place to another inside the cell. An example of one material is protein. After a particular protein has been synthesized in the ribosomes of the cell, it is packaged in a vesicle called a transport vesicle. The vesicle carries this package to the Golgi apparatus for final tweaking after which it is again repacked in a new vesicle which transports it to its required destination in the cell.
