Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The large, visible part of a fungus that is above ground and supports spore making structures:
A
Hyphae
B
Mycelium
C
Sporemaker
D
Fruiting Body
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Multicellular filamentous moulds. Macroscopic filamentous fungi that form large fruiting bodies. Sometimes the group is referred to as ‘mushrooms’, but the mushroom is just the part of the fungus we see above ground which is also known as the fruiting body. Single celled microscopic yeasts.

Detailed explanation-2: -The part of a fungus that is generally visible is the fruiting body, or sporophore. Sporophores vary greatly in size, shape, colour, and longevity. Some are microscopic and completely invisible to the unaided eye; others are no larger than a pin head; still others are gigantic structures.

Detailed explanation-3: -The sporocarp (also known as fruiting body, fruit body or fruitbody) of fungi is a multicellular structure on which spore-producing structures, such as basidia or asci, are borne.

Detailed explanation-4: -The part of the mushroom that grows above ground is a structure called a basidiocarp. Basidiocarp. The part of a mushroom that grows above the ground. Basidia. Are the reproductive structures inside the basidiocarp that produce sexual spores.

Detailed explanation-5: -The more primitive fungi produce spores in sporangia, which are saclike sporophores whose entire cytoplasmic contents cleave into spores, called sporangiospores.
