Options
- AA - 3, B - 4, C - 1, D - 2
- BA - 1, B - 3, C - 4, D - 2
- CA - 4, B - 1, C - 3, D - 2
- DA - 2, B - 3, C - 1, D - 4
Correct answer
A. A - 3, B - 4, C - 1, D - 2
Step-by-step solution
A - 3: Neurospora is a well-known Ascomycete, characterized by the production of ascospores. B - 4: Rhizopus is a typical example of Phycomycetes, which are often found in moist environments and have coenocytic hyphae. C - 1: Penicillium, though commonly associated with the Ascomycetes, is actually listed here under Deuteromycetes because it has been traditionally categorized as such before its sexual stage was understood. D - 2: Ustilago is a Basidiomycete, specifically a smut fungus.
