The macronucleus controls thefunctions of a ciliate's cell
A ciliate uses its micronucleus during sexual reproduction topass genetic material to another individual
All fungi are NOTmulticellular
What are fungal filaments that are similar to plant roots?hyphae
The hyphae in fungus grow together to form a twisted mass called themycelium
Club fungi produce special hyphae that developbasidia
An example of a threadlike fungus isblack bread mold
An example of a sac fungus isyeast
An example of an imperfect fungus ispenicillium
