Answer:

D

Explanation:

The fertilized egg has 46 chromosomes since it is fertilized by the sperm which makes 23 + 23= 46 so, it is fertilized by both parents. HINT: The sperm is produced in the uterus by the father. An unfertilized egg has 23 chromosomes since it is not fertilized by it's father. Therefore, it is only fertilized by it's mother since the mother produces the egg through the ovaries.

The <em>correct</em> answer is:

Penicillium

Aspergillus

The lesson states:

If you've ever heard of or taken penicillin to fight off an infection, you can thank a member of the imperfect fungi called penicillium. Some mold species of penicillium are also important in the flavoring and aging of cheese. Roquefort and Camembert cheese owe their distinctive flavors to these fungi. Aspergillus is an imperfect fungus that is found on decaying food. It also contributes to the production of organic acids like citric acid. <u>Both penicillium and aspergillus produce enzymes that are purified and used in various industrial compounds and in medicine.</u>
