Yeasts are often considered "abnormal" compared to other fungi due to their unicellular structure, which contrasts with the multicellular organization typical of many fungi. They reproduce primarily through budding, rather than the more common spore formation seen in other fungi. Additionally, yeasts can exhibit unusual metabolic pathways, allowing them to ferment sugars into alcohol and carbon dioxide, which has significant applications in brewing and baking. This unique Biology makes them distinct in both ecological roles and industrial uses.

Where are spores of yeasts produced how are yeasts spores called?

Spores of yeasts are typically produced in specialized structures called asci or on the surface of yeast cells during asexual reproduction, depending on the yeast species. The spores produced by yeasts are commonly referred to as ascospores in the case of sexual reproduction, while budding yeasts reproduce asexually by forming blastospores. These spores allow yeasts to survive in various environments and can germinate under favorable conditions.
