Which taxon is classified with the presence of club shaped structures that contain the reproductive spores?
Group of answer choices
zygomycota
basidiomycota
glomeromycota
ascomycota
A biologist is trying to classify an organism on the basis of the fact that they undergo sexual reproduction resulting through the formation of a sporangia that is protected by a thick coating. If you were asked for advice, to which group would you assign this new species?
Glomeromycota
Zygomycota
Deuteromycota
Basidiomycota
Ascomycota
Describe the life cycle of a member of the Basidiomycota including the following terms/structures: basidiocarp, basidiospore, basidium, clamp connection, dikaryotic, diploid, haploid, karyogamy, meiosis, monokaryotic, plasmogamy, primary mycelium, secondary mycelium, tertiary mycelium.
Differentiate between homothallism and heterothallism.
Differentiate between unifactorial (bipolar) and bifactorial (tetrapolar) heterothallism.
