Students have asked these similar questions
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
Which statement is not true of the zygomycetes? (a) many members of this group form endomycorrhizae with tree roots (b) their sexual spores are called zygospores (c) they undergo both sexual and asexual reproduction (d) plasmogamy and karyogamy occur (e) they have coenocytic hyphae
Dikaryon formation is the characteristic feature of(a) ascomycetes and basidiomycetes.(b) phycomycetes and basidiomycetes.(c) ascomycetes and phycomycetes.(d) phycomycetes and zygomycetes
Please try to break the solutions into as many steps as practically possible and the steps should come one by one and they should be short and crisp and plagiarism-free.
