Questions and Answers

What are blastospores?

Small buds developed from which independent cells grow (correct)

Spores with small spine-like projections in their wall

A type of asexual reproductive spore produced at the tip or side of hyphae

Thick-walled, single-celled spores produced by aerial hyphae

Where do chlamydospores occur?

At the tip or side of hyphae

On special spore-producing structures called conidiophores

As independent cells after getting matured
