Answer 2

• Plasmodium : The plasmodium of a slime mold is formed from the fusion of myxamoebae or of swarm cells (gametes). Myxamoebae are spores released from a slime mold that possess pseudopodia (lobes of cellular material) and are known for their amoeba-like appearance and behaviour. Plasmodia are shapeless and mobile.
• Fruiting Bodies : The fruiting bodies or sporangia are what are commonly seen. They superficially look like fungi or molds but are not related to the true fungi. These sporangia will then release spores which hatch into amoebae to begin the life cycle again.
• Spores : When conditions become unfavorable, these slime molds form sporangia - clusters of spores, often on the tips of stalks such as in the sporangium of a Physarum shown at right. Spores from the sporangia are dispersed to new habitats, "germinate" into small amoebae, and the life cycle begins again.
• Sporangia : Although slime molds like this are no longer classified as fungi (they were recently reclassified as a type of protozoa), they produce spores in a similar way to fungi. The pink sacs seen here are called sporangia, or the places where spores are produced.
