In the politics of some countries, a minority is an ethnic group that is recognized as such by respective laws of its country and therefore has some rights that other groups lack.n some places, subordinate ethnic groups may constitute a numerical majority, such as Blacks in South Africa under apartheid. In addition to the traditional (longtime resident) minorities they may be migrant, indigenous or landless nomadic communities.
Myth 5: Cancer is a fungus â and sodium bicarbonate is the cure. This âtheoryâ comes from the not-very-observant observation that âcancer is always whiteâ. One obvious problem with this idea â apart from the fact that cancer cells are clearly not fungal in origin â is that cancer isnât always white. Some tumours are.
Mycology is the study of fungi. Fungi are aerobic or facultatively anaerobic absorptive chemoheterotrophs. Most fungi are decomposers, and a few are parasites of plants and animals. Of the more than 1.5 million species about 300 are pathogenic, however the number of serious fungal infections is increasing.olds and fleshy fungi consist of long filaments of cells joined together (hyphae). A fungal thallus (body) is the vegetative, nonreproductive part of the organism and consists of a tangled mass of hyphae called a mycelium. Septa usually have openings that allow the cytoplasm of adjacent âcellsâ to be continuous.
