Discuss sexual reproduction in Fungi..Answer fast |
| Answer» Sexual reproduction\xa0in the\xa0fungi\xa0consists of three sequential stages: plasmogamy, karyogamy, and meiosis. The diploid chromosomes are pulled apart into two daughter cells, each containing a single set of chromosomes (a haploid state). ... In most\xa0fungi\xa0the zygote is the only cell in the entire life cycle that is diploid.\xa0Sexual reproduction\xa0also occurs in virtually all\xa0fungi. This involves mating between two haploid hyphae. During mating, two haploid parent cells fuse, forming a diploid spore called a zygospore. The zygospore\xa0is\xa0genetically different from the parents. | |
