The question is incomplete, here's the complete question;
Black truffles are a unique type of fungi that are highly prized by chefs and food enthusiasts throughout the world. Which of these characteristics is seen in truffles but not in common mushrooms?
a. lack a reproductive phase
b. contains hyphae
c. has spores contained in ascus
d. has spores contained in basidia
Answer is C. Truffles has spores contained in the ascus.
Explanation:
Fungi like yeasts, molds and mushrooms are eukaryotic organisms which acts as main decomposers in the environment. Black truffles are aromatic edible fungi which belong to the ascomycota phylum. They are expensive and normally seen in the southern Europe. The main feature of the ascomycota is the ascus, a sexual spore bearing cell containing spores called ascospores. Black truffles are round shaped with black-brown skin and has small pyramidal cusps. It contains tightly interwoven hyphae (long filament like structure) and numerous asci (spore bearing cells). Each ascus contains some spores called ascopores, which is specific to fungi classified as ascomycetes. Mushrooms belong to the basidiomycota phylum. They are also composed of hyphae and reproduce sexually via the formation of specialized cells called basidia which have spores called basidiospores.
Due to the reduction in large industrial emmissions such as fertilizers into water zones.
In eukaryotic cells the DNA can be found in the nucleus mainly. so DNA replication takes place in the nucleus during the S phase of the cell cycle.
Also in eukaryotic cells there are mitochondria and chloroplasts (plants) and these have circular DNA and they also get replicated (according to their own mechanism).
Prokaryotic cells don't contain a nucleus. They do not contain DNA in the cytoplasm and thus the DNA replication will take place here.
I really hope this helps!
