alleryFungi (like Rhizopus and Aspergillus) reproduce asexually by producing:
ASeeds
BBuds
CGametes
DSpores (which spread and germinate to form new colonies)
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. Spores (which spread and germinate to form new colonies)
Many fungi produce SPORES — small reproductive units released from the parent.
Spores are light, can be carried by wind/water/insects, and germinate when conditions are favourable.
The bread mould you see on stale bread is the result of airborne fungal spores landing and growing.
Each spore is genetically a clone of its parent.
