*** WHAT'S COVERED ***
1. Fungi
* Eukaryotic organisms.
* Unicellular (e.g., yeast) and multicellular (e.g., mushrooms).
* Structure of multicellular fungi (hyphae) and reproduction (spores).
2. Fungal Diseases
* Example: Rose Black Spot.
* Symptoms (purple/black spots, yellowing leaves, reduced photosynthesis).
* Spread (water, wind).
* Treatment (removing infected leaves, fungicide).
3. Protists
* Eukaryotic organisms.
* Mostly unicellular.
* Parasitic protists and role of vectors in transport.
4. Protist Diseases
* Example: Malaria.
* Caused by a parasitic protist requiring a host.
* Spread by vectors (mosquitoes) between hosts.
* Symptoms (fever, headaches, recurrent episodes) and potential severity.
* Prevention methods targeting vectors (reducing numbers, preventing feeding).
