Q

fungi

yeasts

A
  • unicellular
  • asexual reproduction by producing buds

Q

fungi

what is fungi’s nutritional diet?

autotroph or heteotrophs

A

fungi

what is mycoses?

A

fungal infection

19

asexual spore formation

what are sporangiospores?

A

formed by successive cleavages within a sac like head called sporangium
