Answer:

A

Explanation:

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.

The correct option is A.
