Please explain ??: The umbilical cord arises from the placenta and must be attached for that to happen. Perhaps there is another way to describe your question. If not please call the OB and ask them to explain what they really meant.
Structure of Fungi. The main body of most fungi is made up of fine, branching, usually colourless threads called hyphae. Each fungus will have vast numbers of these hyphae, all intertwining to make up a tangled web called the mycelium.
Fungi generally have the following characteristics: 1. They are eukaryotes. This means they have a nucleus which contains their genetic material (unlike bacteria, which do not have a nucleus).2. They are made of thin threads called hyphae.owever some fungi are made of a single cell eg yeast. The hyphae have a cell wall (like plant cells) made of a material called chitin (unlike plant cells). The hyphae are often multinucleate. This means that the cytoplasm is not divided up into separate cells, but contains many individual nuclei.
