- haploid
- Single copies of each chromosome ...found in sperm and egg cells (a.k.a.germ cells)
- diploid
- Two sets of each chromosome in cell...(2n zygote is produced)
- Meiosis
- The process a cell's nucleus must go through to make sex cells (gametes) with half the number of chromosomes present in the original cell
- karyoogamy
- when two nuclei fuse together
- dikaryotic
- contains two nuclei
- hyphae
- fine thread-like cells
- bracket fungi
- grow on sides of dead or dying trees
- mushrooms
- grow in soil
- gill mushrooms
- most commonly found in yards
- polypore fungi
- form spores along the surface of tiny canals inside the cap
- coccus
- spherical bacteria

- rod-shaped bacterium
- spirillum
- rigid, spiral-shaped bacterium
- chlorophyll
- a group of green pigments found in green plants, algae, and some bacteria necessary for energy production
- basidium
- Short, club-shaped fungus cell on which basidiospores are produced
- Mycelium
- the hypha or mass of hyphae that make up the body of a fungus
- spore print
- the print of a mushroom's spores; these vary widely in color and are made by placing a mushroom cap on a piece of paper.
- chemotroph
- organisms can obtain energy from inorgainc chemical reactions
