Spore Formation

Detailed explanation-1: -In plants, spore formation is the sole means of asexual reproduction. Plants follow an alternation of generation life cycle, where diploid sporophyte produces haploid spores and ultimately gives rise to haploid gametophyte. E.g., liverworts, mosses and hornworts.
Detailed explanation-2: -Fungi like Rhizopus, Mucor, etc., are examples of spore formation. This is a common bread mould plant or rhizopus fungus. It reproduces by forming spores. Regeneration is an asexual method of reproduction.
Detailed explanation-3: -Spore Formation is an Asexual Reproduction technique. Many Spores are housed in sacs known as Sporangia. The plants produce hundreds of spores and the spore sac bursts. These spores are dispersed into the air, where they germinate and create a new plant under favorable conditions.
Detailed explanation-4: -Answer : Fungi reproduce through spore formation; for e.g., bread moulds.
