Answer: Haustoria
Step-by-step explanation:
Haustoria is a rootlike structure that grows into or around another structure for the purpose of absorbing water or nutrients, just as in the broomrape family or mistletoe that penetrates the host's tissue and collects nutrients from it. It refers to the appendage or portion of a parasitic fungus carries out a similar function in mycology. Microscopic haustoria penetrate the cell wall of the host and absorb nutrients from the space between the cell wall and plasma membrane but do not penetrate the membrane itself.
Fungi in all major divisions form haustoria. Haustoria have different forms. On penetration, the fungus increases the surface area in contact with host plasma membrane letting out enzymes that break down the cell wall, causing increasing potential movement of organic carbon from host to fungus.
