Chapter 29, Problem 12PIAT
MODEL Both asexual sporangia (shown in the photo) and zygosporangia can be found in cow dung. Make a simplified drawing that illustrates the events of plasmogamy, karyogamy, and meiosis that occur during sexual reproduction in Pilobolus. Be sure to indicate and label the zygosporangium.

- Which statement about life cycles with a dikaryon stage is false? A zygosporangium results from the fusion of two coenocytic hyphae. In effect, the dikaryon is neither diploid nor haploid. Dikaryotic hyphae often have characteristics that are different from those of their n or 2n products. The only true diploid structure is the zygote. There are no gamete cells, only gamete nuclei.arrow_forwardLabel all parts of the diagram of the life cycle diagram of Mnium. Indicate where meiosis and fertilization occur in the diagram.
