The given diagram shows the formation of:
1. Conidia on sporangiophores
2. Ascospores on asci
3. Basidiospores on a basidium
4. Conidia on conidiophores
In an individual basidiomycete fungus, the size of the following [largest to smallest] will be:
| a. | basidiocarp | b. | basidium |
| c. | basidiospore | d. | mycelium |
| e. | gill |
| 1. | d, e, a, b, c | 2. | e, a, d, b, c |
| 3. | e, a, d, c, b | 4. | d, a, e, b, c |
After karyogamy followed by meiosis, spores are produced exogenously in
| 1. | Neurospora | 2. | Alternaria |
| 3. | Agaricus | 4. | Saccharomyces |

The given picture shows the ear of wheat containing a mass of olive-brown SMUT spores. The disease is caused by a fungal pathogen belonging to:
| 1. | Ascomycetes | 2. | Phycomycetes |
| 3. | Basidiomycetes | 4. | Deuteromycetes |
| 1. | Large number of members of deuteromycetes are decomposers of litter and help in mineral cycling |
| 2. | Sex organs are absent in basidiomycetes but plasmogamy is brought about by fusion of the nuclei of the gametes |
| 3. | The asexual spores produced by ascomycetes are conidia, produced exogenously on the special mycelium called conidiophores |
| 4. | In ascomycetes and basidiomycetes, an intervening dikaryon stage exists before the fusion of parental nuclei |
Select the wrong statement:
1. Cell wall is present in members of Fungi and Plantae
2. Mushrooms belong to Basidiomycetes
3. Pseudopodia are locomotory and feeding structures in Sporozoans
4. Mitochondria are the powerhouse of the cell in all kingdoms except monera
