Question

Which of the following types of fungi are typically unicellular, lack heterokaryotic cells, and occasionally produce rhizoids? Select all correct choices.
basidiomycetes
zygomycetes
glomeromycetes
ascomycetes
chytrids

Answer 1

Answer:

Chytrids

Explanation:

chytrids are saphrotrophs, and have chitin cell walls and a posterior whiplash flagellum. They reproduce with zoospores that are capable of active movement through aqueous phases. For most members of chytrid group, asexual reproduction occurs through the release of these zoospores derived through mitosis. In some groups of chytrids, sexual reproduction is achieved through the fusion of isogametes. Chytrids are coenocytic with no distinction between individual cells. The filaments are long and tubular with a cytoplasm lining and large vacuole in the center. These single-celled organisms have branching hyphae with rhizoids.
