Question
What method of asexual reproduction involves the breaking of the fungal mycelium into several parts, each capable of developing into a new fungus?
Correct Answer
Option D is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
Fragmentation (also known as disarticulation) is an asexual reproduction method where the fungal mycelium breaks into several fragments, and each fragment develops into a new fungus. Sporulation involves the production of spores, budding is the formation of projections that detach, and fission is the simple splitting of a cell.
Hint
This method involves breaking a larger structure into smaller pieces.
