Detailed explanation-1: -What kind of hypha exists in all multicellular fungi? Since all multi-cellular fungi must have something that hods it to the material on which it grows, they all must have rhizoid hyphe.
Detailed explanation-2: -Based on the presence or absence of a septum, hyphae can be categorized into two types: septate and aseptate hyphae. Septate hyphae are characterized by a cross wall, or a septum, dividing the hyphae into compartments that resemble a cell.
Detailed explanation-3: -Many fungi occur not as hyphae but as unicellular forms called yeasts, which reproduce vegetatively by budding. Some of the opportunistic fungal pathogens of humans are dimorphic, growing as a mycelium in nature and as a vegetatively reproducing yeast in the body.
Detailed explanation-4: -Rhizopus fungi are characterized by a body of branching mycelia composed of three types of hyphae: stolons, rhizoids, and usually unbranching sporangiophores.
