What are the two types of gametes that are NOT produced by phycomycetes?
Options
- AIsogamous and anisogamous
- BAnisogamous and oogamous
- CIsogamous and oogamous
- DSeptate and coenocytic
Correct answer
D. Septate and coenocytic
Step-by-step solution
Members of phycomycetes are found in aquatic habitats and on decaying wood in moist and damp places or as obligate parasites on plants. The mycelium is aseptate and coenocytic. Asexual reproduction takes place by zoospores (motile) or by aplanospores (non-motile). These spores are endogenously produced in sporangium. A zygospore is formed by fusion of two gametes. These gametes are similar in morphology (isogamous) or dissimilar (anisogamous or oogamous). Some common examples are Mucor, Rhizopus (the breadmould men
