The three types of hyphae can be represented by:

Stolon Hyphae: the horizontal conections between the organims, being hypae that has a function of link different fungi, growing in the soil surface, they are septate and connects the sporangiosphores together;

Rhizoid Hyphae: are the protuberances that extend from the lower epidermal cells, being small branching hyphae that growns downwards from the stolon and creates a anchor to the fungus structure, like the roots in the plants they make possible the fungi structure to the up in the soil;

Sporangiophores: they are spherical (in mostly of the organisms) that are responsible for make possible the asexual reproduction of fungus, being the spores produced by the sporangium in fungi.
