Summary Introduction

Neurospora crassa is a red bread mold and it possess a haploid life cycle. It generates ascospores as a product of meiosis. This red mold develop a circadian rhythm, which is a cellular time keeping process that permits temporal organization of behavioral, physiological, and molecular activities in eukaryotes.

You have been asked to consult for a biotech company that is seeking to understand why some fungi can live in very extreme environments, such as the high temperatures inside naturally occurring hot springs. The company has isolated two different fungal species, F. cattoriae and W. gravinius, both of which can grow at temperatures exceeding 95°C. The company has determined the following things about these fungal species (see attached image) By sequencing and examining their genomes, the biotech company hopes to understand why these species can live in extreme environments. However, the company only has the resources to sequence one genome, and would like your input as to which species should be sequenced and whether you believe a shotgun strategy will work in this case.
Zygomycete bread molds such as Rhizopus stolonifer (black bread mold) produce sporangia in both sexual and asexual reproductive cycles. Which of the following do the sexual sporangia of Rhizopus stolonifer originate from (i.e. what does the sporangia grow out of)? Select one: O a. from the aseptate hyphae O b. from the zygosporangium O c. from the substrate O d. from the gametangia
