- Distinguish among fungi that are haploid, dikaryotic, or diploid by completing the following statements, referring to the figure as necessary. n+n sexual n diploid contains paired haploid nuclei dikaryotic 2n A haploid asexual Saved B Fungi reproduce both sexually and asexually. In terrestrial fungi, reproduction occurs in three stages. One stage, depicted in part A of the figure above, is termed point each cell is First, days, months, or years, the Another stage, depicted in part B of the figure above, is termed stage takes its name from the term for a hypha that each cell is C at which 20 hyphae pair up. Sometimes immediately, other times after hyphae make contact and fuse...

SEXUAL reproduction through conjugation of 2 different mating strains ASEXUAL reproduction by conidial ASEXUAL reproduction by spores (produced in sporangia) ASEXUAL reproduction by conidia (produced on tips of conidiophores) or budding Do not perform SEXUAL reproduction. SEXUAL reproduction by fusion of 2 mating types of monokaryotic hyphae. Resulting dikaryotic mycelium often develops basidiomata SEXUAL reproduction through the union of male and female structures, followed by formation of asci ASEXUAL reproduction by zoospores (produced in zoosporangia) ASEXUAL reproduction is rare, but can occur by conidia.
