Discuss the sexual and asexual reproduction of Rhizopus , the black bread mold. Include the names of the structures involved.

Concepts to Consider: Spores grow into a mycelium (haploid), producing sporangia with asexual spores (haploid); hyphae of different mating types come together and form gametangia (haploid); resultant zygospores (diploid) germinate, producing haploid hyphae, which produce sporangia with haploid spores.

Compare the metabolic diversity of bacteria between autotrophic and heterotrophic bacteria.

Autotrophic bacteria make their own organic compounds from inorganic sources, whereas heterotrophic bacteria cannot do this. Instead, heterotrophic bacteria must obtain their carbon compounds from the organic compounds produced by other organisms.
