Answer 1

Choice 4 of 5. Hyphae produces multinucleate gametangia

Choice 1 of 5. Gametangia fuse

Choice 2 of 5. Karyogamy occurs and zygosporangium develops

Choice 5 of 5. A dark, thick-walled zygospore develops

Choice 3 of 5. Meiosis occurs to produce haploid spores

Step-by-step explanation:

The steps of zygomycota sexual reproduction are;

Germination step; Hyphae produces multinucleate gametangia

Plasmogamy step; Gametangia fuse when compatible mating types of mycelia are brought close to each other by the formation gametangia between

The fusion of the nuclei results in the formation of zygosporangium that has multiple haploid nuclei and a thick wall

Karyogamy step; A zygote having multiple diploid nuclei is formed by the fusion of nuclei

Germination and Meiosis step; The sporangia grows and haploid spores are produced

Therefore, we have;

Choice 4 of 5. Hyphae produces multinucleate gametangia

Choice 1 of 5. Gametangia fuse

Choice 2 of 5. Karyogamy occurs and zygosporangium develops

Choice 5 of 5. A dark, thick-walled zygospore develops

Choice 3 of 5. Meiosis occurs to produce haploid spores
