Biology project help, por favor!! I've looked up and tried to research this stuff, but I'm still confused!

OpenStudy (seaturtle113):

Mushrooms are the fruiting body of Basidiomycete fungi. What is the fungus itself made up of? Describe both the single units and the overall networked structure that groups of these units form.

OpenStudy (frostbite):

Fungi bodies are usually created into a network we call hypha. Hyphae consist of cell walls surrounding the plasma membrane and cytoplasm of the cells. Many fungi membranes are benefiting from addition support from chitin. Chitin is a strong and very flexible nitrogen-containing polysaccharides. Fungal hyphae form a internal mass called a mycelium that got to function to infiltrate the material which the fungus feeds on. We can divide most fungi into two groups: a) Septate hypha Fungi in which they got crosswalls (called septa), separating parts of the hypha. The septa contain pores however, allowing ribosomes, mitochondria and nuclei to flow from cell to cell. b) Coenocytic hypha Fungi having a continuouse cytoplasmic mass (no septa) and can contain up to thousands of nuclei. This condition is the result of nuclei division without cytokineses.
