Pick up the true choice with respect to the life cycle of Rhizopus:
Correct answer: C. Diploid Zygospores meiosis ⎯⎯ →⎯ Haploid spores
- A. Haploid Zygospores mitosis ⎯⎯ →⎯ Haploid spores
- B. Diploid Zygospores mitosis ⎯⎯ →⎯ Diploid spores
- C. Diploid Zygospores meiosis ⎯⎯ →⎯ Haploid spores
- D. Diploid Zygospores meiosis ⎯⎯ →⎯ Diploid spores
Explanation
Answer is "Diploid zygospore ⎯⎯→Haploid spores"Explanation: Diploid zygospore undergoes meiosis to produce four haploid spores, two of plus strain and two of minus strain.Diploid zygospores are created when two haploid fungi fuse together. These zygospores then undergo meiosis, which splits the zygospore into four haploid spores. These spores are then dispersed and can grow into new haploid fungi.

About Biodiversity and Variety of Life
Biological classification uses taxonomic ranks, binomial nomenclature and shared characteristics to organize life into kingdoms. The major groups include prokaryotes, protists, fungi, plants and animals, with comparisons based on cell type, cell wall, nutrition, body organization, reproduction and evolutionary relationships; prokaryotes lack a membrane-bound nucleus.
