Fungi
Habitat:
Saltwater, freshwater, soil, plants, animals, human skin, and microscopic crevices
*Fungi grow in habitats that have an optimum temperature level
Reproduction:
By releasing spores that can be spread throughout ways of wind/rain and other organisms
Anatomical Features:
- Unicellular and multicellular
- Hyphae
- Chitin in cell walls
- Contains cytoplasm and nucleus
- Grow quickly
Evolutionary Milestones:
*Being Eukaryotic is sometimes considered a developmental milestone*
Predators/Prey:
- Heterotrophs, saprophytes, symbionts, or parasites
Prey can include almost any organism from plants to different mammals. Predators of fungi can include other fungi and bacteria
Symmetry:
Radial symmetry, bilateral symmetry, or asymmetrical
Mobility:
Non-motile excluding the spores produced
Development:
Depends on individual fungal species
