Biology 21.1
Fungi have cell walls made of chitin and reproduce both asexually and sexually. Their bodies are made of many tiny filaments called hyphae that tangle together to form a thick mass known as a mycelium. Some fungi and fungus-like organisms form fruiting bodies or sporangia on specialized hyphae that contain and disperse spores.
Biology - Chp 21 - Fungi - PowerPoint
Fungi are eukaryotic heterotrophs that have cell walls composed of chitin. They digest food outside their bodies by absorbing nutrients from decaying matter as decomposers or from hosts as parasites. Fungi are multicellular with thin filaments called hyphae that form a tangled mycelium. They reproduce both sexually, requiring two mating types, and asexually via spores. Fungi play important ecological roles as decomposers, parasites, and in symbiotic relationships with plants and algae.
Fungi
Fungi are eukaryotic organisms that lack chlorophyll and include mushrooms, molds, and yeasts. They obtain nutrients by digesting external materials and can be saprophytic or parasitic. Fungi have filamentous hyphae that can aggregate into a mycelium and reproduce both sexually and asexually via spores. They are found universally and prefer moist, dim environments.
General characters of fungi
Fungi are eukaryotic organisms that can reproduce both sexually and asexually. They obtain nutrients through absorption.
The body of a fungus is called a thallus, made of filamentous hyphae that form a mycelium. Hyphae may be septate or coenocytic. Fungi reproduce sexually through the fusion of gametes and asexually via spores like mitospores, arthrospores or conidia. Sexual reproduction involves plasmogamy, karyogamy and meiosis.
Fungi have diverse morphologies and reproduce through various structures like pycnidia, sporodochia, and sori. They also exhibit
Reproduction in fungi
Fungi can reproduce both sexually and asexually. Asexual reproduction is more common and occurs through fragmentation, fission, budding or sporulation. Sporulation produces spores like sporangiospores or conidia. Sexual reproduction involves the union of nuclei through plasmogamy and karyogamy, followed by meiosis. It occurs via processes like planogametic copulation, gametangial contact or somatogamy and produces offspring through recombination of genetic material.
Fungi
Fungi are a group of organisms that lack chlorophyll and vascular tissues. They can grow as parasites on plants and animals, causing diseases, or as saprophytes that break down dead organic matter. Fungi exhibit heterotrophic nutrition and can be either obligate or facultative parasites or saprophytes. They reproduce both asexually through spores or sexually through various modes of reproduction depending on the type of fungi.
Classification of fungi
This document provides an overview of the classification and characteristics of major fungal phyla: Chytridiomycota, Zygomycota, Ascomycota, Basidiomycota, Glomeromycota, and Deuteromycota. It describes their reproductive structures, modes of reproduction, examples of fungi from each phylum, and their economic importance in areas like medicine, industry, and agriculture.
Beauty of cyclosporine
Cyclosporine is an immunosuppressant derived from the fungus Tolypocladium inflatum. It was discovered in 1970 and found to be an immunosuppressant in 1976. Cyclosporine works by suppressing T-cell function to prevent transplant rejection. It was approved for use in organ transplants in 1983 and for severe psoriasis in 1997. Cyclosporine comes with risks of increased infection and kidney toxicity due to its immunosuppressive effects.

General characteristics of fungi
Fungi have either unicellular or filamentous thalli. The filamentous thallus is made of hyphae that collectively form the mycelium. Mycelia can be aseptate or septate. Hyphae undergo various modifications including plectenchyma, rhizomorphs, sclerotia, stromata, and haustoria. Fungi obtain nutrients either saprophytically by absorbing from dead organic matter or parasitically by absorbing through host tissues. Fungi reproduce vegetatively, asexually through spores, and sexually.

Fungi have diverse body forms ranging from unicellular yeasts to multicellular mushrooms. They obtain nutrients by absorption and secrete enzymes to break down food sources. Fungi play important ecological roles as decomposers, symbionts such as mycorrhizal partners of plants, and parasites of plants and animals. They reproduce both sexually through spores and asexually through mitotic spores. Major fungal groups are classified based on sexual reproductive structures like asci or basidia. Fungi interact with humans both beneficially through roles in decomposition, food production, and medicine, and harmfully as causes of food spoilage, plant diseases, and some serious human infections.
Chemical coordination
The document discusses the endocrine system, which consists of glands that release hormones directly into the bloodstream to regulate metabolism, growth, reproduction, and other essential body functions. The major glands include the hypothalamus, pituitary gland, thyroid gland, parathyroid glands, adrenal glands, pancreas, gonads, pineal gland, and thymus. Hormones help coordinate communication between different organs and cells to maintain homeostasis.
Nervous coordination
The nervous system allows for coordination in the body through electrochemical signaling between neurons. It consists of neurons and neuroglia. Neurons receive and transmit signals via dendrites, the cell body, and the axon. There are three types of neurons - sensory, motor, and inter. A nerve impulse is generated through changes in the neuron's membrane potential and the opening and closing of ion channels, causing the signal to propagate along the axon. At a synapse, neurotransmitters transmit the signal to the next neuron. Reflexes are automatic responses to stimuli.

Cupping therapy
Cupping therapy is an ancient healing method that involves placing cups on the skin to enhance blood flow. It works by using suction to draw the skin and deeper tissues up underneath the cups. This increases circulation and brings impurities to the surface of the skin to be released. Cupping has been used for thousands of years in places like Egypt, China, and the Middle East to treat various health conditions by reducing inflammation and toxins in the body. It stimulates blood and lymph flow while strengthening the immune system. Cupping can help many issues like pain, respiratory problems, and skin conditions. It is a generally safe technique when performed properly by a trained practitioner.
Plant classification
The document provides information on plant classification, describing the four main groups that plants are classified into: mosses and liverworts, ferns, conifers, and flowering plants. It then focuses on mosses, providing details on their characteristics, life cycle, and subdivisions. The document also briefly outlines key aspects of ferns, conifers, and the angiosperms.
Introduction to plants 1233859493415311-3
1) Plants evolved adaptations like a waxy cuticle, stomata, and the ability to reproduce using pollen to survive on land.
2) Vascular plants have conducting tissues that transport water and nutrients, as well as seeds and flowers that make reproduction more efficient.
3) Angiosperms are divided into monocots and dicots based on differences in their leaves, roots, vascular tissue, and floral structures.
Chp9 growth and development
This document discusses plant growth and development, including:
1. It describes vegetative growth patterns in shoots and roots of annuals, biennials, and perennials.
2. Environmental factors like light, temperature, water, and gases influence plant growth. Light intensity, day length, and temperature correlate with seasonal growth patterns.
3. Reproductive growth involves phases from flower induction through fruit maturation. Flowering is induced by day length (photoperiodism) in some plants and temperature (vernalization) in others.
Chap. 4 plant reproduction final
Plant reproduction involves an alternation of generations between haploid and diploid phases. In seed plants like angiosperms, the sporophyte phase is dominant. During reproduction, the male gametophyte (pollen grain) fertilizes the female gametophyte inside the ovule. This triggers double fertilization, where one sperm cell fuses with the egg to form a zygote embryo, and another sperm fuses with polar nuclei to form triploid endosperm tissue to nourish the developing seed.
plant morphological lab activities ch 091129203156-phpapp01
This document discusses plant tissues and how they are organized in plant structures like stems, roots, and leaves. It describes the basic tissue types found in plants like parenchyma, collenchyma and sclerenchyma, as well as complex tissues like xylem, phloem and epidermis. The chapter also examines how plant tissues develop and are arranged differently between monocots and dicots.
chapter 4
Cell division through mitosis and meiosis is essential for growth, development, and reproduction in organisms. Mitosis produces two identical daughter cells during normal growth and tissue repair. Meiosis produces gametes like sperm and egg cells that have half the number of chromosomes, allowing sexual reproduction to create offspring with a full set of chromosomes from both parents. DNA is replicated and passed on to new cells through these cell division processes to ensure genetic continuity.

Stems have several functions including supporting leaves, flowers, and fruits; transporting water and nutrients between roots and other plant parts; and storing food. They originate from the epicotyl region of seed embryos. Herbaceous stems are soft and green while woody stems are tough with secondary growth. Stems have internal specialized tissues like xylem and phloem that conduct water and nutrients respectively. Some stems are modified for storage, protection, or reproduction.
Mende
Mendel conducted experiments crossing pea plants that differed in distinct traits like seed color and shape. He discovered that traits are transmitted from parents to offspring through discrete units called genes located on chromosomes. His laws of heredity showed that for each trait there are two alleles that separate during gamete formation, with one randomly passed from each parent. The dominant allele will be expressed in offspring while the recessive is not. Additionally, different genes assort independently during gamete formation and fertilization.
Genotype and phenotype
The document discusses the differences between genotype and phenotype. Genotype refers to how genes code for a specific trait, using capital letters for dominant traits and lowercase for recessive traits. Phenotype refers to the outward appearance or expression of a trait. Some examples provided are that genotype could be TT for a purebred dominant tall pea plant, while phenotype looks at the actual observed trait of being tall. The key difference is that genotype deals with gene code, while phenotype deals with observable characteristics and traits.
Genetics 2
The document discusses heredity and genetics, including Gregor Mendel's experiments with pea plants that laid the foundations for modern genetics. It explains basic genetics concepts such as alleles, genotypes, phenotypes, monohybrid and dihybrid crosses. The document also covers inheritance patterns such as incomplete dominance, codominance, and sex-linked traits.
Genetics
Genetics is the study of genes and inheritance of traits. Characteristics are physical features like eye color that come in different versions called traits, such as blue, green, or brown eyes. Inheritance occurs when traits are passed from parent to child through genes, which are bits of DNA information. Genetic diseases can be inherited from parent to child, such as Marfan syndrome. Reproduction can be sexual, through fertilization of an egg by sperm, or asexual through copying; both result in offspring. Mutations in genes during reproduction can produce new traits in offspring.
Genetics
Gregor Mendel discovered the fundamental principles of genetics through breeding pea plants. He found that traits are determined by alleles, or alternative forms of genes. Dominant alleles will mask recessive alleles in heterozygous individuals. Mendel used Punnett squares and conducted monohybrid and dihybrid crosses to study inheritance patterns, discovering the principles of segregation and independent assortment. The Hardy-Weinberg principle states that allele frequencies in a population will remain constant over time if certain conditions are met.
Genetic code 2081
The document outlines the process of RNA and protein synthesis, including the structure and types of RNA such as messenger RNA, ribosomal RNA, and transfer RNA, as well as the steps of transcription, translation, and the roles of RNA and DNA in coding for proteins. Key concepts covered are the genetic code, how mRNA carries instructions to assemble amino acids brought by tRNAs into proteins with the help of rRNA during translation on the ribosome.
Genetic traits
The document summarizes various genetic traits and what is known about their heritability. For traits like earlobe attachment, thumb extension, tongue rolling, dimples, and freckles, some scientists have reported they are due to a single dominant gene, while others note multiple genes may be involved. Handedness and hair curl have been linked to single or multiple genes. Allergies have a genetic component and risk increases with an allergic parent or parents. Views on hand clasping and colorblindness also provide insight into their genetic basis.
52 ch13mendel2007
This document summarizes Gregor Mendel's pioneering work in genetics through experiments breeding pea plants. Mendel documented traits like flower color and seed shape over multiple generations of pea plants. His data showed that traits are inherited as discrete units and that some traits are dominant over recessive traits. Mendel's findings established the basic principles of heredity, including the laws of segregation and independent assortment. His work laid the foundation for modern genetics.
07 gene mutations
The document discusses gene mutations, specifically point mutations that affect a single gene. It describes how mutations can occur at the DNA, mRNA, and protein levels through substitutions, inversions, additions, and deletions. This leads to changes in amino acid sequences which can significantly impact protein structure and function, potentially causing genetic disorders. Sickle cell anemia is provided as a specific example and results from a single nucleotide substitution in the beta-hemoglobin gene.
Molecular genetics partii 100131193902-phpapp01
This document discusses the process by which DNA is transcribed into mRNA and then translated into protein. Key points include:
- One gene typically codes for one polypeptide through a multi-step process of transcription and translation.
- During transcription, DNA is copied into mRNA by RNA polymerase. The mRNA then undergoes processing before exiting the nucleus, including capping, polyadenylation, and splicing of introns.
- During translation, the mRNA binds to ribosomes where transfer RNA molecules bring amino acids in the proper sequence specified by the mRNA codon sequence to produce a polypeptide chain.

Apps Break Data
How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?

From Natural Language to Structured Solr Queries using LLMs
This talk draws on experimentation to enable AI applications with Solr. One important use case is to use AI for better accessibility and discoverability of the data: while User eXperience techniques, lexical search improvements, and data harmonization can take organizations to a good level of accessibility, a structural (or “cognitive” gap) remains between the data user needs and the data producer constraints.
That is where AI – and most importantly, Natural Language Processing and Large Language Model techniques – could make a difference. This natural language, conversational engine could facilitate access and usage of the data leveraging the semantics of any data source.
The objective of the presentation is to propose a technical approach and a way forward to achieve this goal.
The key concept is to enable users to express their search queries in natural language, which the LLM then enriches, interprets, and translates into structured queries based on the Solr index’s metadata.
This approach leverages the LLM’s ability to understand the nuances of natural language and the structure of documents within Apache Solr.
The LLM acts as an intermediary agent, offering a transparent experience to users automatically and potentially uncovering relevant documents that conventional search methods might overlook. The presentation will include the results of this experimental work, lessons learned, best practices, and the scope of future work that should improve the approach and make it production-ready.
