The correct answer would be that <u>the spores inherit half of their genes from each parent.</u>
<em>The ascospores start their journey through the fusion of 2 haploid nuclei (karyogamy) to form a diploid zygote nucleus. The zygote nucleus develops and then divides by meiosis to produce 4 haploid daughter cells. Each daughter cell then divides mitotically, making it eight haploid nuclei at the end.</em>
Hence, each spore inherits half of its gene from different nuclei.
