1 00:00:01,780 --> 00:00:28,210 Hello everyone, I'm going to explain you today the part that we've been in, which is fungi, so number three, fungi, remember that you need to write everything on your notebooks, including the table of contents, you need to keep with it, so fungi, you have watched some video, you have watched a video where it explains things about fungi, 2 00:00:28,210 --> 00:00:34,130 so now we're going to have all that on our notebook and we're gonna prepare the 3 00:00:34,130 --> 00:00:39,509 general characteristics of them. So the first thing we need to do is to prepare 4 00:00:39,509 --> 00:00:47,390 something drawing like this. What is it? You got it! It is a mushroom, okay? Mushrooms 5 00:00:47,390 --> 00:00:52,450 are only part of the fungi. It's not, okay, in general we call fungi to the 6 00:00:52,450 --> 00:00:59,350 mushrooms, but it's only a small part of the whole organisms of fungi. So, of fungi, there are 7 00:00:59,350 --> 00:01:06,150 multiple organisms, some of them are unicellular, as you have seen with the yeast, some of them are 8 00:01:06,150 --> 00:01:19,379 multicellular. So, but including all of them, there are 70,000 species of fungi. So, imagine how many 9 00:01:19,379 --> 00:01:26,519 different types you can have, okay? Wow, amazing! Okay, so let's gonna see the 10 00:01:26,519 --> 00:01:40,500 characteristics of the fungi. Characteristics, okay? Remember to make 11 00:01:40,500 --> 00:01:46,560 drawings as good as possible, always use different type of colors, that includes 12 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:52,719 you you know who you are okay so let's see characteristics of the fungi first of all 13 00:01:52,719 --> 00:01:59,900 what type of cell do they have think a little bit now answer okay there are eukaryotic cells 14 00:01:59,900 --> 00:02:09,340 okay so we have eukaryotic think about the characteristic of eukaryotic cell what are 15 00:02:09,340 --> 00:02:19,620 eukaryotic cells, okay, are those cells who got a nucleus, okay, and organelles, okay, they are 16 00:02:19,620 --> 00:02:26,539 eukaryotic, they are also, what would it be for the nutrition, autotrophic or heterotrophic, 17 00:02:27,099 --> 00:02:35,740 think a little bit, yes, heterotrophic, okay, we've got it in the video too, heterotrophic, 18 00:02:35,740 --> 00:03:02,860 Okay? Remember the characteristics of the heterotrophic organisms. Next one. Okay? Fungi, as well as plants, they have a cell wall. Cell wall. Okay? They make a wall, some bricks, some bricks, okay? Resembling a wall, so you can remember better. Okay? 19 00:03:02,860 --> 00:03:20,270 but this cell wall is made of chitin, okay, chitin, okay, this is a specific type of 20 00:03:20,270 --> 00:03:27,310 of carbohydrate, what type of biomolecule are the carbohydrates? Think a little bit, 21 00:03:29,719 --> 00:03:35,460 it's an organic biomolecule, okay, you got it, if not, please revise that section, 22 00:03:35,460 --> 00:03:53,539 Okay, now, so we have a cell wall made of kitten and the nutrition of the fungi, we say they are heterotrophic, but also in this heterotrophic they can be of three different types, okay? 23 00:03:53,539 --> 00:04:16,720 They can be saprophytic, wait, I need to see how to write it, ok, saprophytic, ok, that means that they can feed on other organisms that are dead, for example, or of the excrements of some organisms, ok, and they don't harm anyone. 24 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:28,699 they can be parasitic parasitic okay in which they get use of another animal or 25 00:04:28,699 --> 00:04:33,199 another plant another living thing in general okay and they get the energy 26 00:04:33,199 --> 00:04:38,519 from it without doing anything it's the same as when you take the homework from 27 00:04:38,519 --> 00:04:44,959 your classmate that you haven't done anything you're a parasite okay now and 28 00:04:44,959 --> 00:04:53,009 symbiotic symbiotic is a cool relationship between because with that 29 00:04:53,009 --> 00:04:57,949 two individuals get benefit from each other imagine that you were working in 30 00:04:57,949 --> 00:05:02,750 the project of the cell and you made one part and your partners made another part 31 00:05:02,750 --> 00:05:08,329 you made a symbiosis you got all a good mark thanks to that and that you all 32 00:05:08,329 --> 00:05:14,850 work okay there's a symbiotic relationship okay so let's revise 70,000 33 00:05:14,850 --> 00:05:22,850 species, they are characteristic, they are eukaryotic, they are heterotrophic, they have a cell wall made of chitin, 34 00:05:22,850 --> 00:05:26,850 and their nutrition can be saprophytic, parasitic, and symbiotic. 35 00:05:26,850 --> 00:05:45,689 Let's continue with the fungi. 36 00:05:45,689 --> 00:05:51,689 Okay, there's a special type of fungi that make a symbiosis. 37 00:05:51,689 --> 00:05:56,689 Remember in the last picture that we have the chart? 38 00:05:56,689 --> 00:06:02,930 chart okay we say that symbiosis is a very special relationship in which two individuals get benefit 39 00:06:02,930 --> 00:06:10,769 from each other okay so in this case fungi can have an specific symbiosis with certain organisms 40 00:06:10,769 --> 00:06:22,610 okay and we call them lichens lichens that maybe you have seen them when when you are walking on 41 00:06:22,610 --> 00:06:32,209 the countryside or on the walls of an interesting building, but outside Madrid because lichens do 42 00:06:32,209 --> 00:06:38,050 not like pollution, so they are not going to be in polluted area. But if there's clean air, 43 00:06:38,930 --> 00:06:44,370 surely you are lucky that you have seen some lichens. I will attach some pictures later. 44 00:06:44,370 --> 00:06:52,370 Okay, so lichens are composed of three different organisms, okay? We have a multicellular fungus, 45 00:06:52,610 --> 00:07:07,129 multicellular fungus remember plural fungi singular fungus then we have 46 00:07:07,129 --> 00:07:19,649 cyanobacterium what have we seen cyanobacteria do you remember okay 47 00:07:19,649 --> 00:07:23,930 what's in the bacteria domain okay these cyanobacteria are autotrophic which 48 00:07:23,930 --> 00:07:30,050 means that yes they can make their own food they make photosynthesis okay so 49 00:07:30,050 --> 00:07:40,839 cyanobacteria and then we have a green algae a green algae so three individuals 50 00:07:40,839 --> 00:07:47,800 the fungus the cyanobacteria and the green algae that make a symbiosis and 51 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:51,399 they benefit from each other and they cannot live separately we cannot take 52 00:07:51,399 --> 00:07:55,899 this fungus and grow it somewhere or take this cyanobacteria and grow it 53 00:07:55,899 --> 00:08:13,610 somewhere no they must live together okay all the time last part for today 54 00:08:13,610 --> 00:08:20,170 the classification of fungi okay I'm gonna use a certain type of 55 00:08:20,170 --> 00:08:24,769 classification but doesn't mean that has to be the correct one I mean we can use 56 00:08:24,769 --> 00:08:28,310 different types remember when we were talking about classifying 11 things 57 00:08:28,310 --> 00:08:33,429 remember many squares triangles circles and different people on the class has 58 00:08:33,429 --> 00:08:38,389 different type of classification this happens the same I'm going to use one to 59 00:08:38,389 --> 00:08:42,730 not get into technical words okay but if you find somewhere else they will have 60 00:08:42,730 --> 00:08:54,379 different types, okay? We're going to define it in whether they are unicellular or they are 61 00:08:54,379 --> 00:09:06,679 multicellular. Okay, what would be the difference between unicellular and multicellular? Yeah, I know 62 00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:13,740 it's not the same if someone doesn't make a joke now, but you can try at least, like when you were 63 00:09:13,740 --> 00:09:20,919 doing with dora la exploradora when you were a kid okay now let's see unicellular we found an 64 00:09:20,919 --> 00:09:30,039 example in the video do you remember try think yeah they are yeast and remember we have worked 65 00:09:30,039 --> 00:09:36,159 with them remember in the laboratory with the balloons and the test tube remember that okay 66 00:09:36,159 --> 00:09:47,350 cheese obtain energy remember that fungi are heterotrophic so they cannot make 67 00:09:47,350 --> 00:09:51,830 their own food but they take things from the outside environment like the cheese 68 00:09:51,830 --> 00:09:57,049 and obtain energy through a process called let's see if someone remembers 69 00:09:57,049 --> 00:10:08,559 get an extra point in the mark let's see the the process was fermentation that 70 00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:13,440 was the process that we observe that if we add sugar to the cheese then they 71 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:18,639 start to react and they make carbon dioxide that's the product of the fermentation okay so the 72 00:10:18,639 --> 00:10:27,200 fermentation can have different products okay but it is is going to obtain energy from that products 73 00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:37,120 and they are going to transform these sugars into lactic acid lactic acid don't worry you will see 74 00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:49,440 the picture later closer or alcohol so for example when we prepare bread or pizza and we use yeast 75 00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:55,679 the yeast that we add it makes a fermentation and the product will be lactic acid or for example 76 00:10:55,679 --> 00:11:02,399 that we use to make yogurt or the ones that we use to make a cheese but there are other 77 00:11:02,399 --> 00:11:08,639 days that are used to make alcohol in drinks for example those that are used to make beer 78 00:11:08,639 --> 00:11:15,039 or the ones that are used to make rum okay so different fermentation and can have different 79 00:11:15,039 --> 00:11:23,600 yeast and they can have lactic acid or alcohol now multicellular fungi okay more than one cell 80 00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:30,960 okay we're going to try two types molds that remember that you have in the closer in the 81 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:39,899 definition or we can have mushrooms to tell you the truth i don't like very much this definition 82 00:11:39,899 --> 00:11:47,399 but as I say, it's not to get too technical, okay, and the mushrooms, what we can see when we are 83 00:11:47,399 --> 00:11:53,980 going to collect mushroom, if you are a mushroom picker, okay, is that if this is the countryside, 84 00:11:54,840 --> 00:12:04,679 you can see the outside of, okay, what is upper ground, but underground, there are a lot of 85 00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:14,340 things going on, okay? There are a lot, a lot of part of the fungi under earth, okay? 86 00:12:14,340 --> 00:12:23,820 To this part, okay, this is the mushroom, mushroom with its upper ground, 87 00:12:23,820 --> 00:12:30,899 and underneath it's going to release some spores. What would be the use of the 88 00:12:30,899 --> 00:12:36,059 spores, the use of the spores would be to reproduce, to move around and have fungi 89 00:12:36,059 --> 00:12:44,299 all around the place, okay? And underground, all this part is called the mycelium, okay? 90 00:12:44,299 --> 00:12:50,659 The part that is on the ground, we cannot see, and it's made like threads, okay? Look 91 00:12:50,659 --> 00:12:57,399 it up in the dictionary, you don't know what it means, threads, okay? D-H-R-E-A-T. 92 00:12:57,399 --> 00:13:04,019 yeah okay the mycelium has a lot of threads there okay and each thread is 93 00:13:04,019 --> 00:13:14,580 called hyphae okay each means the each thread in the mycelium is called hyphae 94 00:13:14,580 --> 00:13:20,860 so a lot of hyphae are the mycelium in Spanish we call it ifa mycelium so will 95 00:13:20,860 --> 00:13:26,039 be the same difficulty as if you're learning in English don't worry okay so
