Detailed explanation-1: -Kingdom Fungi are classified into the following based on the formation of spores: Zygomycetes – These are formed by the fusion of two different cells. The sexual spores are known as zygospores, while the asexual spores are known as sporangiospores. The hyphae are without the septa.
Detailed explanation-2: -Fungi are usually classified in four divisions: the Chytridiomycota (chytrids), Zygomycota (bread molds), Ascomycota (yeasts and sac fungi), and the Basidiomycota (club fungi). Placement into a division is based on the way in which the fungus reproduces sexually.
Detailed explanation-3: -When the mycelium of a fungus reaches a certain stage of growth, it begins to produce spores either directly on the somatic hyphae or, more often, on special sporiferous (spore-producing) hyphae, which may be loosely arranged or grouped into intricate structures called fruiting bodies, or sporophores.
Detailed explanation-4: -Structure of Fungi is such that the reproductive body of fungi is a thallus, which can be unicellular or multicellular. Based on the climate, dimorphic fungi can transition from unicellular to multicellular states. Yeasts are the common name for unicellular fungus.
