Life cycle of rhizopus in short points
Answers
Explanation:
An intercalary segment of mycelium develops due to the formation of septae and accumulation of protoplasm. It is thick-walled and detaches from the mycelium once it dries. They remain dormant until the favourable conditions return and then germinate to form a new mycelium.

The life cycle of rhizopus is described below :
Rhizopus can reproduce by both modes, that is, asexual as well as sexual.
Rhizopus have haploid and coenocytic hyphae. When two hyphae that are compatible meets, it results in the formation of two zygophores. Structures called gametangia are formed at the tips of each zygophores. The plasmogamy of 2 gametangia forms a zygote.
The zygote is then transformed into zygospore. The zygospore after meiosis germinates into sporangiophore which possess a sporangium.
The spores produced from the sporangium gets germinated and forms mycelia.
