As lichen's sexual reproduction is done by fungal partners which are in majority belonging to Ascomycetes and very few to Basidiomycetes.They usually form Ascus/ asci or containing ascospores organized into fruiting bodies like Perithecium, Apothecium. The vegetative reproduction in lichens occurs through vegetative structures like isidia, soredia,conidiospores etc. None of the fruiting bodies in lichens are knowns as sporangia.Therefore it can be confidently concluded that as Photobionts in lichenized state not form any fruiting structure( Sexual or vegetative) and as the structures formed by fungi are that of fungi form no sporangia is formed..

Produces spores in mosses?

Mosses produce spores in capsule structures called sporangia. The sporangia are located on stalks called seta, which extend above the moss plant. When the sporangia mature, they release spores into the environment for reproduction.

What do the clusters on the fern leaf contain?

The clusters on a fern leaf, known as sori, contain sporangia which produce spores. These sporangia are typically located on the undersides of the leaves and can be arranged in various patterns. The spores are released when mature, allowing the fern to reproduce and disperse.


Do zygote fungi have spore containers?

Zygomycota fungi produce spores in sporangia, which are structures that contain and release the spores. These sporangia are found at the tips of specialized hyphae called sporangiophores.


When do plasmodial slime molds develop sporangia?

Plasmodial slime molds develop sporangia when they reach a certain stage in their life cycle, typically after the plasmodium has finished feeding and growing. The sporangia contain spores that will eventually be released to form new plasmodial slime molds.


What spores are contained in tubular sporangia?

Tubular sporangia typically contain spores of fungi, particularly within the group of zygomycetes. These sporangia produce asexual spores known as sporangiospores, which are released when the sporangium ruptures. In certain contexts, tubular sporangia may also be found in some species of algae and plants, where they serve a similar function in spore production and dispersal.


What do sporangia cones and flowers have in common how do they differ?

Sporangia cones and flowers are both reproductive structures in plants. They both produce and contain spores or seeds for reproduction. However, sporangia cones are found in gymnosperms and produce naked seeds, while flowers are found in angiosperms and produce seeds enclosed in a fruit.

What are small round clusters that contain spores on fronds?

Small round clusters that contain spores on fronds are known as sori (singular: sorus). These structures are typically found on the underside of fern leaves (fronds) and consist of spore-producing sporangia. When mature, the sporangia release spores into the environment, enabling the fern to reproduce and propagate. Sori can vary in appearance and arrangement, depending on the species of fern.
