Fungus cells are eukaryotic. These cells contain all the
eukaryotic organelles except plastids. Some of these
organelles are nucleus, ribosomes, endoplasmic
reticulum, mitochondria, Golgi bodies, etc. A fungal
cell wall contains mostly chitin. Plasmalemma bears
coiled membranous outgrowths called lomasomes.
Nuclei are small and connected to endoplasmic
reticulum. Nuclear division involves formation of
internal spindle. Vacuoles are small. Near the hyphal
tips, the cytoplasm contains small vesicles called
chitosomes. Food reserve is in the form of glycogen
and oil.
