Unit 5: Structure and Function of Living Organisms
Day 6: Fungi and Parasites
2-20-17
Science starter: Copy and answer.
Which of the following do viruses share with
living things: (could be more than one)
*they move
*they grow
*they cause disease
*they reproduce
*they take in nourishment
*they have genetic material-DNA or RNA
Benchmarks next week…Chemistry Review:
Copy this chemical equation. Balance it
and answer the question below it.
N2 + _H2 —› 2NH3
What coefficient goes in the space to
balance the reaction?
A)4
B)3
C)2
D)it needs no coefficient because it is
already balanced.
(there is another slide to go with this)
1. Label the reactants and products in the equation.
N2 + _H2 —› 2NH3
2. How would the 2 reactants be classified AND WHY???
*elements?
*compounds?
*mixtures?
*molecules?
3. How would the product be classified AND WHY? (same
choices as above)
4. What scientific law do balanced equations support?
5. If the N2 has a mass of 20g and the H2 has a mass of
30g, what should be the mass of the 2NH3?
Plan for the Day
• Review information about bacteria and
viruses
• Compare/Contrast
• Set up pages 7 and 8– Fungi and
Parasites-Work on flipbook
• Wrap-up
Homework
•Complete page 8 about
parasites for homework
tonight.
Let’s discuss similarities and
differences between viruses
and bacteria. Take out your
Venn diagram.

Vocabulary
• 16.Fungi: Eukaryotic (nucleus), nonphotosynthetic organisms. *Most are
multicellular heterotrophs (get food from
their environment).

“Troph” means “food” or
“nourishment”.
“Hetero” means “different”.
Put it together: a
heterotroph is an organism
that cannot make its own
food and must get it from a
different source. Ex. Fungi
absorb their food from the
environment.
Fungi characteristics
1. Attacks tissues of living plants & animals.
2. Can cause diseases
3. Major concern to humans as they attack us
and our food sources; therefore, they are
competitors with us for nutrients
(Bread mold)
1. Eukaryotic (nucleus)
2. Heterotrophic: no chlorophyll
3. Rigid cell walls
4. Spores are airborne and can cause allergic
reactions. Ex: (mold)
Characteristics continued
9. Have their own kingdom (FUNGI)
11. Different shapes, sizes, and colors
12. Live on or near their food supply (don’t catch
or surround food)
13. Most are consumers, some are decomposers
14. Some are parasites
15. Ex. Mushrooms, Athlete’s foot, baker’s yeast,
ringworm, corn blight
Fungi reproduction
• Budding: a “bud”
forms and pinches
off from the parent
(yeast); results in a
new yeast (fungus)
• Hyphae break apart
& each new piece
becomes a fungus.
• Spores are released
into the air & when
they come to a place
where conditions are
right, they break
open forming new
fungi.
Disadvantages of Fungi
A. Airborne spores, when inhaled,
can trigger allergic reactions
B. Some are pathogenic (cause disease)
Ex. athlete’s foot, ringworm, oral thrush,
blight in plants, can attack internal
organs
C. Attack our food sources, making
them a COMPETITOR with humans
for nutrients. Ex. Attack corn, wheat,
fruit-bearing trees, bread, etc.
Ringworm
Athlete’s foot
Candidiasis/Oral
thrush
Corn blight
Bread mold
Tree fungus
Benefits of Fungi
A. Food – ex. Mushrooms on pizza
B. Used to make antibiotics, ex. penicillin
C. Other medicines and vitamins
D. Used to make cheeses, soy sauce, and
citric acid
E. Yeast used to make bread is a fungus
Treatment of Fungal Infections:
1. Anti-fungal medications
2. Some antibiotics
Prevention:
Ex. Wiping down wrestling/exercise mats
before use and after
