Question: how are chytrids different from other fungi?
Answer: Chytridiomycota: The Chytrids Like all fungi, chytrids have chitin in their cell walls, but one group of chytrids has both cellulose and chitin in the cell wall. Most chytrids are unicellular; a few form multicellular organisms and hyphae, which have no septa between cells (coenocytic).
