Detailed explanation-1: -Fungal cells are of two basic morphological types: true hyphae (multicellular filamentous fungi) or the yeasts (unicellular fungi), which make pseudohyphae. A fungal cell has a true nucleus, internal cell structures, and a cell wall.
Detailed explanation-2: -Fungi spend much of their lives with only a single nucleus. Except, that is, when two filaments cross paths. When two lonely filaments find each other, the cells at the tip of the filaments fuse, and form new structures that have two nuclei per cell.
Detailed explanation-3: -The cell wall is a characteristic structure of fungi and is composed mainly of glucans, chitin and glycoproteins. As the components of the fungal cell wall are not present in humans, this structure is an excellent target for antifungal therapy.
Detailed explanation-4: -Fungi are multicellular, with a cell wall, organelles including a nucleus, but no chloroplasts.
