You give a good overview of sexual and asexual reproduction in fungi. However, which one is more advantageous? and if one is more advantageous... why would the fungi use both types of replications? Again, your prompt is fair, but it is quite uncertain if you are telling which are favorable conditions and why... you do tell us that genetic variation is only possible under unfavorable circumstances. However, is this strategy due to evolution and fitness? or is it just because of circumstances given under the chance factor?

- In the space below, diagram generalized haplontic, diplontic, and alternation of generations life cycles. Make sure to indicate whether each stage in the life cycle is haploid or diploid, and unicellular or multicellular. Also write the stage's name (e.g., zygote, gametophyte, spore, etc.) if it has one. You don't need to draw the stages - e.g., for a zygote you can just write "zygote, unicellular, 2N". Also make sure to indicate where exactly in the life cycle meiosis takes place. Please draw and label these as possible clearly as Haplontic Diplontic Alternation of generationsarrow_forwardThis is a moss plant. Identify strucure A and B?
