quantitative:a general description includes facts, figures and scientific observation that can be statistically analyzed and then can be reduced to something that can be counted
diversity:the state or quality of being different or varied
lichen:the combination of a fungus and either an algae or an atotrophic bacterium that live together in a mutualistic relationship
budding:a form of asexual reproduction of yeast in which a new cell grows out of the body of a parent
fruiting body:the reproductive structure of a fungus that contains many hyphae and produce spores
hyphae:the branching, threadlike tubes that make up the bodies of multi cellular fungi
fungi:a eukaryotic organisim that has cell walls, uses spores to reproduce and is a heterotroph that feeds by absorbing its food
red tide:an algal bloom that occurs in salt water
alagal bloom:the rapid growth of a population of algae
eutrophication:the buildup over time of nutrients in freshwater lakes and ponds that leads to an increase in the growth of algae
spore:a tiny cell that is able to grow into a new organisim
pigment:a chemical that produces color
algae:plantlike protists
mutualisim:a type of symbiosis in which both partners benefit from living together
symbiosis:a close relationship between two organisims in which at least one of the organisims benefits
cilia:tiny airlike extensions that move together in a sweeping motion
pseudopod:temporary bulges in a protozoan that act as feet to help it move
protozoan:animal-like protists that are heterotrophs, uni-cellular, and move around to find food
protist:a eukaryotic organisim that cannot be classified as an animal, plant, or fungus
contractile vacuole:an organelle that collects excess water from the cytoplasm and expels it from the cell
