APPLIED RADIOLOGICAL ANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -Mycelium is a network of filamentous structures known as hyphae.

Detailed explanation-2: -Like plants and animals, fungi are eukaryotic multicellular organisms. Unlike these other groups, however, fungi are composed of filaments called hyphae; their cells are long and thread-like and connected end-to-end, as you can see in the picture below.

Detailed explanation-3: -The filaments are called hyphae (singular, hypha). Each hypha consists of one or more cells surrounded by a tubular cell wall. A mass of hyphae make up the body of a fungus, which is called a mycelium (plural, mycelia). The hyphae of most fungi are divided into cells by internal walls called septa (singular, septum).

Detailed explanation-4: -Each individual filament of the mycelium is called hypha (plural: hyphae). Some of these hyphae are very long, continuous tubes with multinucleate cytoplasm. These are called coenocytic hyphae. A mold is a fungus that grows in the form of multicellular filaments called hyphae.

Detailed explanation-5: -typically filamentous fungi composed of hyphae. Most species reproduce sexually with a club-shaped spore-bearing organ (basidium) that usually produces four sexual spores (basidiospores). Basidia are borne on fruiting bodies (basidiocarps), which are large and conspicuous in all but the yeasts, rusts, and smuts.
