Fungi are heterotrophic eukaryotic microorga- nisms.They are nonphotosynthetic and typically form reproductive spores. Algae are phototrophic eukaryotes that contain photosynthetic pigments within a structure called the chloroplast Protozoa are animallike protists exhibiting heterotrophic nutrition and they can be def- ined as usually motile eukaryotic unicellular microorganisms
Protozoa are animallike protists exhibiting heterotrophic nutrition and they can be defined as usually motile eukaryotic unicellular microorganisms. Fungi are heterotrophic eukaryotic microorganisms. They are nonphotosynthetic and typically form reproductive spores. Algae are phototrophic eukaryotes that contain photosynthetic pigments within a structure called the chloroplast
4.2 Fungal growth and reproduction Fungi contain cell walls and produce spores, most described species form a relatively tight phylogenetic cluster. Three major groups of fungi are recognized: the molds the yeasts the mushrooms

Molds The molds are filamentous fungi.They are widespread in nature.Each filament grows mainly at the tip,by extension of the terminal cell A single filament is called a hypha (plural,hyphae) Hyphae usually grow together across a surface and form compact tufts,collectively called a mycelium, which can be seen easily without a microscope
