Respuesta :

Answer;

D. Chytridomycota

Chytridomycota is a phylum of fungi which consists of decomposers that utilize flagellated spores.

Explanation;

-Chytridiomycota is distinguished from other phylum of kingdom Fungi by having zoospores (motile cells) with a single, posterior, whiplash structure (flagellum). Species are microscopic in size, and most are found in freshwater or wet soils. Most are parasites of algae and animals or live on organic debris (as saprobes).

-For most members of Chytridiomycetes, sexual reproduction is not known. Asexual reproduction occurs through the release of zoospores (presumably) derived through mitosis.
