**6. Observe slide of *Aspergillus*.**

**a. Make a drawing and label the following: hyphae, conidiosporangium, conidiophores, and conidia (conidiospores), ploidy.**

*Image Explanation:* 
The image shows a microscopic view of the fungus *Aspergillus*. At the center, there is a dark, round structure called the conidiosporangium. Extending from this structure is the conidiophore, which is a stalk-like feature. Surrounding the conidiophore and sporangium, numerous small, circular conidia (conidiospores) are visible, appearing like scattered dots. The background shows the hyphae, which are thread-like structures, forming the body of the fungus.

**b. Classify to phylum.**

*Aspergillus* belongs to the phylum Ascomycota.
