Hints & Solutions

(a) Mucor is a fungus and most of the fungi require the optimum temperature of about 15$30^{\circ} C$, good moisture content in atmosphere and not very dark and not very lightened place. So Mucor requires a temperature of about $25^{\circ} C$, humidity about $95 %$ and a shady place to grow fully.
