| Term | Definition |
| Fungi | vegetative structures and Reproductive structures |
| Vegetative Structures | septate hyphae, non-septate hyphae and yeasts |
| Septate Hyphae | (fungal cell) separate the cells |
| Non-septate | coenocytic |
| Yeasts | single celled fungi |
| Reproductive Structures | asexual or sexual |
| Asexual Spores | made when alone |
| Types of asexual spores | conidiospores, arthrospores, blastospores, chlamydospores and sporangiospores |
| Sexual Spores | have to touch |
| Types of Sexual spores | zygomycota, ascomycota, basidiomycota and deuteromycota |
| Zygomycota | zygospores - phylum |
| Ascomycota | ascospores (cup fungus) |
| Basidiomycota | basidiospores - mushrooms |
| Deuteromycota | imperfect fungi - yeast and mold - yeast infection |
| Mycosis | systemic, subcutaenous and cutaneous |
| Systemic | in bloodstream - rhizopus, aspergillus, histoplasma (carried in pigeons), pneumocystis (pneumonia- AIDS) |
| Subcutaneous | below skin - stachybotrys - gardeners gets it |
| Cutaneous | Trichophton - skin plants - dermatophytes, Tinea pedis, Tinea corparis, Tinea cruris, Tinea ungulium, Tinea capitis, Tinea barbae - Candida albicans |
| Tinea Pedis | athelete Foots |
| Tinea Corporis | Ring Worm |
| Tinea Cruris | Jock itch |
| Tinea ungulium | nail fungus |
| Tinea Capitis | head |
| Tinea Barbae | beard |
| Candida albicans | oral thrush and vaginatis |
| Algae | dinoflagellates - red algae - red tide - PSP |
| Protista | propagation - schizogony - split into two - Sex - conjugation |
| Protozoa | schizogony, conjugation - trophozoite and cyst |
| Trophozoite | active |
| Cyst | inactive |
| Flagellate/ Mastigophorans | trichomonas vaginalis, trypanosoma brucei, trypanosoma cruzi, giardia/ amblia |
| Amoeboids/ Rhizpoda | entamoeba histolytica and Naegleria fowleri |
| Trichomonas Vaginalis | undulating membrane causes STD's no syst |
| Trypanosoma brucei | African sleeping sickness - tse fly - transmitted by insect |
| Trypanosoma cruzi | central and south American sleeping sickness - reservoir is a armidillo |
| Ciliophora | all cilia are harmless except this one - balantidium coli - cats and pigs |
| Sporozoa/ Apicomplexa | can not move on its own - plasmodium falciparun - Toxoplasma gondii |
| Plasmodium falciparun | deadliest disease ever - maleria - worst - Anopheles mosquito carries it - quinine prevent malaria - sickle cell anemia is resistant to it |
| Toxoplasma gondii | cyst - cats and mice carry it - can be in cows muscles - still born of child |
