Digesting OUTSIDE the Body• Fungi can break down polymers (large organic
molecules) OUTSIDE their bodies• The cells in the hyphae send out digestive
enzymes that break the polymer into monomers (small organic molecules)
• The small monomers then can enter the cells of the hyphae and travel through the mycelium

Food (dead stuff) polymers (large organic molecules)
LIPIDS (FAT) = 3 fatty acid monomers and 1 glycerol
PROTEIN = 5 amino acid monomers
CELLULOSE (FIBER) = 6 glucose monomers
STARCH = 6 glucose monomers

Food molecules are dead
things like stumps
Place large food
molecules (dead stuff)
here in trunk

Food is digested by
fungal enzymes
outside the fungi’s body

Breakdown Food Molecules (Digestion)
Let’s focus on what happens to PROTEIN in food for fungi (dead stuff).(Put the other food molecules to the side of the poster for now.)
Digest PROTEIN molecules by breaking the protein into individual amino acids.

Move the small
molecules through the
fungal hyphae
Small molecules are taken up and
transported by fungal hyphae
