Spores produced by slime molds are__________?
Correct answer: A. Haploid
- A. Haploid
- B. Diploid
- C. Triploid
- D. None of these
Explanation
Slime-mold spores are formed after meiosis and are therefore haploid, allowing them to germinate into haploid amoeboid or flagellated cells. Students may choose b by confusing the diploid plasmodial stage with the haploid spore stage.

The key distinctions involve their monomers, chemical bonds, structures and functions, including glucose and starch, fatty acids and triglycerides, amino acids and polypeptides, and nucleotides in DNA and RNA.
