Question

what are fungal spores? how are they made ?

Answer 1

Fungal spores are microscopic biological particles that allow fungi to be reproduced, serving a similar purpose to that of seeds in the plant world. Fungi decompose organic waste and are essential for recycling of carbon and minerals in our ecosystem. It has been estimated that fungi recycle millions of tons of organic waste annually.

There are thousands of different fungi in the world which are essential for the survival of other organisms. In addition, mushrooms and other fleshy fungi are a food source for many animals, including humans.    

Answer 2

Answer:

The spores refer to the single-celled reproductive units of the lower or nonflowering plants such as bacteria, fungi et cetera.

They are similar to the pollen of higher plants.

They are produced as a result of sexual as well as asexual reproduction.

During sexual reproduction, haploid spores are produced by the process of meiosis.

In contrast, during asexual reproduction spores are produced through mitotic division.
