Fungi are able to reproduce asexually by creating conidiospores and sporangiospores. Which of the following is an accurate explanation for why it is advantageous that they are also capable of sexual reproduction?
Select one:
a. Asexually produced offspring are more likely to compete for resources and will kill off the parental fungi.
b. Fungi normally produce sexually but produce asexually in harsh conditions such as severe drought.
c. Offspring from two parents may have variations in form and function that contribute to survival of the species.
d. Sexual reproduction produces more offspring at a faster rate than spore formation.
(Ans- Offspring from two parents may have variations in form and function that contribute to survival of the species.
