    species are multicellular. Most fungi do not have flagella in any phase of their life cycle. They move toward food by growing toward it. The main body of most fungi is made up of fine‚ branching‚ and usually colourless threads called hyphae. Each fungus will have vast numbers of these hyphae‚ all intertwining to make up a tangled web called the mycelium. Fungi decompose dead animals and plant matter. Fungi releases carbon dioxide to the air. Bacteria are prokaryotic. Bacterial cells usually come

    can also make rubber. Like people‚ seedlings need to grow up nourished and strong to repopulate. Its necessities include the right temperature‚ amounts of water‚ season‚ surrounding air‚ amount of sunlight‚ and soil conditions. In addition‚ a fungus known as mycorrhizae will develop within the roots of this plant and eventually undergo symbioses. Fortunately‚ these mycorrhizal fungi form mutualistic relationships; which will enable the plant to absorb a sufficient amount of water‚ consume nutrients

    Role of mycorrhizas in the mineral nutrition of host plants Mycorrhizas are very important in the uptake of nutrients such as P‚ N‚ K‚ Cu‚ Zn and Ca by plants especially in soils low in these nutrients. Since P is the most limiting nutrient in tropical soils‚ mycorrhizas are vital for improving P nutrition particularly for cultivated plants. External hyphae can absorb and translocate P to the host from soil outside the root depletion zone. The thin mycorrhizal hyphae (2-4 μm in diameter) are able

    Abstract This experiment analyzes the effects of how temperature affects bacterial and fungus amylase and also discovers the optimum temperature for these enzymes. The amylase was mixed with starch at temperatures of 0℃‚ 37℃‚ 57℃‚ and 90℃. Iodine was added to each mixture and colour changes in each case. Bacteria amylase was found to be effective at 55 0C as the temperature dropped drastically from 4.58℃ to 2.33℃. This shows that the amylase catabolized a lot of starch hence little is left which
