  2. Saprobiont - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saprobiont

    Saprobionts are organisms that digest their food externally and then absorb the products. [1] [2] This process is called saprotrophic nutrition.Fungi are examples of saprobiontic organisms, which are a type of decomposer.

  3. Saprotrophic nutrition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saprotrophic_nutrition

    Saprotrophic nutrition / s æ p r ə ˈ t r ɒ f ɪ k,-p r oʊ-/ [1] or lysotrophic nutrition [2] [3] is a process of chemoheterotrophic extracellular digestion involved in the processing of decayed (dead or waste) organic matter.

  4. Saprotrophic bacteria - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saprotrophic_bacteria

    All saprotrophic bacteria are unicellular prokaryotes, and reproduce asexually through binary fission. [2] Variation in the turnover times (the rate at which a nutrient is depleted and replaced in a particular nutrient pool) of the bacteria may be due in part to variation in environmental factors including temperature, soil moisture, soil pH, substrate type and concentration, plant genotype ...

  6. Saprophytes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saprophytes

    Saprophyte may refer to: . Saprotrophs; organisms, particularly fungi, which obtain nutrients directly from dead organic matter or wastes; Myco-heterotrophs; plants, fungi, or micro-organisms that live on dead or decomposing matter and parasitize fungi, rather than dead organic matter directly.

  7. Extracellular digestion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extracellular_digestion

    Extracellular phototropic digestion is a process in which saprobionts feed by secreting enzymes through the cell membrane onto the food. The enzymes catalyze the digestion of the food, i.e., diffusion, transport, osmotrophy or phagocytosis.

  8. Heterotroph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heterotroph

    Saprotrophs (also called lysotrophs) are chemoheterotrophs that use extracellular digestion in processing decayed organic matter. The process is most often facilitated through the active transport of such materials through endocytosis within the internal mycelium and its constituent hyphae .

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_neuroscience_databases

    A number of online neuroscience databases are available which provide information regarding gene expression, neurons, macroscopic brain structure, and neurological or psychiatric disorders. Some databases contain descriptive and numerical data, some to brain function, others offer access to 'raw' imaging data, such as postmortem brain sections ...
