Which statement is FALSE about sexual reproduction of fungi?
|
|
Basidiomycota forms basidiospores inside the basidium
|
|
|
Ascomycota forms ascospore in ascus
|
|
|
Zygomycota forms zygospores in zygosporangium
|
|
|
Basidiomycota forms basidiospores outside the basidium
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: –These two different strains of mycelium fuse together to form a structure called a dikaryotic mycelium while this process is known as plasmogamy.-This again forms a complete organism and then again goes under meiosis. This completes the life cycle of the basidiomycetes. So, the correct answer is ‘All of these’.
Detailed explanation-2: -In Class Basidiomycota organisms reproduce sexually using a club-shaped structure, called a basidium, that produces basidiospores. They can also reproduce asexually by producing hardened spores (conidia) from specialized cell structures (conidiophores), extending from hyphae.
Detailed explanation-3: -So the correct option is ‘Deuteromycetes’.
