KINGDOM FUNGI

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Fungi are only able to reproduce with sexual reproduction.
A
True
B
False
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Fungi usually reproduce both sexually and asexually. The asexual cycle produces mitospores, and the sexual cycle produces meiospores. Even though both types of spores are produced by the same mycelium, they are very different in form and easily distinguished (see above Sporophores and spores).

Detailed explanation-2: -Fungi are a diverse group of organisms with a huge variation in reproductive strategy. While almost all species can reproduce sexually, many reproduce asexually most of the time. When sexual reproduction does occur, large variation exists in the amount of in-and out-breeding.

Detailed explanation-3: -Fungi reproduce asexually through spores, budding, and fragmentation. Fungi reproduce sexually through the fusion of two haploid hyphae, one (+) and one (-). Fungi have two mating types, (+) and (-).

Detailed explanation-4: -Asexual Reproduction Almost all fungi reproduce asexually by producing spores. A fungal spore is a haploid cell produced by mitosis from a haploid parent cell. It is genetically identi ca l to the parent cell. Fungal spores can develop into new haploid individuals without being fertilized.

Detailed explanation-5: -Almost all fungi reproduce asexually by producing spores. A fungi spore is a haploid cell produced by mitosis from a haploid parent cell. It is genetically identical to the parent cell.
