Ascocarp is the fruiting body found in:
Correct answer: C. Ascomycetes
- A. Zygomycetes
- B. Basidiomycetes
- C. Ascomycetes
- D. Deuteromycetes
Explanation
The correct answer is Ascomycetes because they produce a fruiting body known as an ascocarp. This structure houses the asci, where the sexual spores are formed. Zygomycetes do not produce an ascocarp; they form zygosporangia. Basidiomycetes produce a basidiocarp, which is a different kind of fruiting body. Deuteromycetes, or Fungi Imperfecti, are known for the absence of a sexual reproductive phase, hence they do not form an ascocarp.
