What is sporangia?

Answer 1

Sporangium is both a classification of fungi, and a description of a specific part of fungi anatomy.

Sporangium is a classification of fungi, distinct from other forms of fungi (such as budding fungi or symbiotic fungi) because it is a sporing fungi which produces spores in the sporangia. Many forms of fungi reproduce by sporing via the hyphae. The hyphae of most fungi are either rooted in the ground or in the host, depending on whether the species of fungi is saprophytic or parasitic, respectively. Fungus described as Sporangium also reproduces (proliferates) via the production of spores, but specifically the spores are produced in the sporangia; the sporangia form on the thread-like stalks -- known as the hyphae -- of the plant body. Normally, the hyphae (which produce spores in sporing fungi) are anchored in the nutritional substrate, either the ground or some host body, in most cases. The part of the fungi that is "above ground" or visible on a host body is called the fruiting body. However, in the case of sporangium fungi, the hyphae are not anchored in some substrate, but instead are usually found external of the substrate or host, where the fruiting body would be described. Sporangia are hard sacks on the ends of the hyphae where spores grow, and when a sporangium -- or a grouping of the sporangia -- reaches maturity, it breaks open, speading thousands of spores. The spores that land on some carbon-rich organic matter -- preferably damp or decomposing -- they will use that organic matter as a nutritional substrate, each spore growing into new hyphae that forms a new fungal body. It should be noted, however, that sporangium fungi can also produce sexually, as they are -- somewhat uniquely -- able to produce zygospores which allow them to incorporate the genetic material from two distinct parent-hyphae and produce a hybrid of the two original hyphae in the offspring fungal body. Common forms of bread mold, such as Apergillus, are Sporangium fungi.

Answer 2

Sporangium is a round spore case of a zygote fungus.

Answer 3

Sporangium is round black with many celled structure. Rhizophus reproduce asexually by means of sporangium................J BALAJI [9440031596] baluqualis@Yahoo.com

Answer 4

A sporangiophore is a group of cells taht act together to form sporangia.

Answer 5

is a dust caused by the release of Sporangium tangae(Collumela). Usually foun in bread molds

Answer 6

A Sporophyte is the diploid (2n) part in a plant's life cycle. In reference to moss it can be the spore producing capsule (seta).

Answer 7

Structure in which spores are produced.
