Classification of spores is based on the morphological trends observed through fossils. In other words, spores with common evolutionary ancestors are placed in similar groups.

How are asexual spores of mold classified?

They are classified by their mode of development.Sporangiospores- asexual spores produced at the end of aerial hyphae enclosed within a sac. Rhizopus makes these types of spores.Conidiospores- asexual spores produced in chains at the end of aerial hyphae and are not enclosed by a sac. Penicillium makes these types of spores.Read more: What_are_the_two_types_of_asexual_spores_of_mold

Where can you find a list of spores?

A list of spores can be found in scientific databases, mycology reference books, or on websites dedicated to mycology. These resources may provide information on different types of spores, including their characteristics, sizes, shapes, and where they can be found in nature.


What are the classifications of fungi according to the ability to reproduce?

Fungi can be classified into two groups based on their ability to reproduce sexually: Ascomycetes (sac fungi) and Basidiomycetes (club fungi). Ascomycetes produce spores in sac-like structures called asci, while Basidiomycetes produce spores on club-shaped structures called basidia.


Does fungi produce spores?

Fungi produces spores and are actually classified according to the structure in which meiosis and spore production occur. Examples of fungi includes yeasts and molds.


What Other plants use spores?

In addition to ferns, several other plants reproduce using spores, including mosses, liverworts, and hornworts, all of which belong to the group known as bryophytes. Fungi, such as mushrooms and molds, also utilize spores for reproduction, although they are not classified as plants. Additionally, some algae, particularly certain types of green algae, can reproduce through spores as part of their life cycle. These spore-producing plants typically thrive in moist environments where their spores can germinate effectively.


Are spores formed with salmonella?

No, salmonella does not form spores. Salmonella is a type of bacteria that belongs to the family Enterobacteriaceae and is classified as a non-spore-forming organism. Instead of forming spores, salmonella can survive in adverse conditions by entering a dormant state or forming biofilms. This makes it resilient in various environments, but it does not have the spore-forming capability characteristic of some other bacteria.


What kind of a fungus has a fruiting body and eight haploid spores?

Only fungi classified as ascomycetes (Ascomycota) have a fruiting body and eight haploid spores. The spore bearing cell, the ascus, undergoes meiosis, producing four haploid spores which undergo mitosis. The result is eight haploid ascospores.
