Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: A
Solution:
- In Agaricus (a genus of basidiomycetes), basidiospores or meiospores are produced exogenously. Neurospora (a genus of ascomycetes) produces ascospores as meiospores but endogenously inside the ascus.) Alternaria (a genus of deuteromycetes) does not produce sexual spores. Saccharomyces (Unicellular ascomycetes) produces ascospores, endogenously.
