Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-C

Explanation:

The fungus which produces the growing structures in the form of hyphae is known as moulds.  The moulds reproduce by producing a large number of small structures called spores which acts as an adaptive feature of dispersal in the organisms.

The spores produced by the moulds are produced as a result of the asexual reproduction simply called spores which are produced from the sporangiophores.

The sexual spores are also produced by the moulds through meiosis which acts as reproductive organs and germinates during the favorable environment.

Thus, Option-C is the correct answer.
