In coccidioidomycosis, _______ containing many endospores form in the lungs.
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

spherules

Explanation:

Like histoplasmosis, coccidioidomycosis is acquired by the inhaling fungal spores.

<u>Arthrospores are formed by the hyphal fragmentation in this case. Once in body, fungus differentiates into the spherules which are filled with the endospores. </u>

Most of the C. immitis infections are self-limiting and asymptomati. The endospores are transported in blood, disseminating infection and thus leading to formation of granulomatous lesions on face and nose. I

<u>Thus, spherule is a thick-walled spherical structure which encloses the endospores and occurring in parasitic form of the fungi of genus Coccidioides.</u>
