Answer:

Their spores are produced in sac-shaped structures.

Their spores are produced in club-shaped structures.

Their reproductive cells have flagella.

Their reproductive cells have several nuclei.

They live in wet places.

They live in dry places.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Chytridiomycota, often called chytrids, are unique among all fungi in having motile stages in their life cycles; no other fungi have this trait. These motile stages take the form of zoospores, single cells with a single posterior (at the rear) flagellum.
