1. taxonomic category within a kingdom-phylum

This taxonomic category is at level below Kingdom and above Class (e.g Arthropoda, Chordata, Mollusca)

2. plant that lives on decaying organic matter-saprophyte  

Saprotrophic plants or saprophytes use saprotrophic nutrition meaning that have extracellular digestion to process death organic matter.

3. break down of complex molecules into simpler ones- fermentation  

Fermentation is a metabolic process that breaks down organic substrates in order to obtain energy. These processes are performed without the presence of oxygen (anaerobic processes).

4. multi-nucleated thread-like structures of fungi hyphae

This is one of the basic structural unit of fungi-long, filamentous structure that can form network-micelium. It is used for vegetative reproduction.

5. mycelia responsible for obtaining food from non-living organic material rhizoids

Rhizodis are unicellular or multicellular stuctures (branching hyphae) found in fungi that are similar to root hairs of plants. These structures are involved in saprotrophic nutrition of fungi.

6. asexual reproduction of yeast budding  

Budding is a type of asexual reproduction in which a new organism develops from some generative anatomical part of the parent organism.

7. a group of hyphae mycelia

Mycelum is fungi’s vegetative body that consists of network of branching hyphae.

8. reproductive cells which can tolerate bad conditions spores

Spores are reproductive structure, part of the fungi life cycle, that can be involved in sexual or asexual reproduction, vary in structure that are formed in. Spores are usually haploid and unicellular.

9. structures which house the reproductive formation fruiting

Fruit is a structure in flowering plants that contains seed and it is responsible for seed dispersal and nutrition.

10. mutually positive relationship between two species symbiosis  

Symbiosis is biological interaction between two species that can be mutualistic, commensalistic, or parasitic. More specifically, symbiosis refers to positive interaction for both members of it.

11. plant or animal which supports a parasite host

pogonyaev

Answer:

Because of the UV radiations from the sun causes the damage to the DNA of the skin cells causing the formation of pyrimidine dimers and also causing inflammation and immune suppressiosn resulting in the formation of melanoma.

Explanation:

The main cause of skin cancer (melanoma) is too much ultraviolet radiation from the sun or the sunbeds.

The carcinogenic , inflammatory , immunosuppressive and DNA damaging properties of ultraviolet radiations contribute to the initiation , progression and metastasis of primary melanoma.

Melanoma usually occurs due to excessive exposure to the UV radiations in the sunlight resulting in awry in the melanin producing cells (melanocytes) that give color to the skin.
