1. What is the advantage of the high surface-area-to-volume ratio of the fungal mycelium? a) This high ratio means that fungi have a thick, fleshy structure that allows the fungi to store more of the food it absorbs. b) The lower volume prevents the cells from drying out too quickly, which can interfere with absorption. c) This high ratio creates more room inside the cells for additional organelles involved in absorption. d) The larger surface area allows for more material to be absorbed across the cell membrane. 2. Fungi commonly known as "mushrooms" produce which of the following sexual reproductive structures? a) Asci b) Basidia c) Zygosporangia d) Gametes 3. The closest living relatives of animals are likely... a) multicellular algae b) multicellular fungi c) flagellated protists d) unicellular chytrids 4. One advantage of a coelom is that it... a) allowed for the evolution of cephalization and the formation of a cerebral ganglion b) allows for asexual and sexual reproduction c) provides a more efficient digestive system d) contributes to a hydrostatic skeleton, allowing for movement in soft-bodied animals 5. Members of phylum Porifera... a) exhibit a pseudocoleom b) are typically asymmetric, though some species exhibit radial symmetry c) are diplobastic d) have a nerve net, but not a central nervous system 6. Animals in each Phylum listed below exhibit segmentation, except... a) Annelida b) Arthropoda c) Nematoda d) Chordata 7. The term "Cambrian explosion" refers to which of the following? a) A rapid increase in the diversity of animals, including the appearance of all major animal body plans. b) A rapid increase in the abundance of animals present on Earth c) The asteroid crash that wiped out the dinosaurs 66 mya d) An earthquake that unearthed a large fossil-bearing deposit called the Burgess shale near in BC near the Alberta border. .
