Answer:
Bread mold (Rhizopus stolonifer) is a widely distributed thread-like mucoralean mold. Commonly found on bread surfaces, it takes food and nutrients from the bread and causes damage to the surface where it lives. Asexual spores are formed within pinhead-like sporangia, which break to release the spores when mature. Germination of these spores forms the haploid hyphae of a new mycelium. R. stolonifer grows rapidly at temperatures between 15 and 30°C.
Therefore, the correct answer is option B.

The fungi obtain nutrition by saprophytism using the hyphae that digest external dead organic substances and ingest the nutrients.
Explanation:
- Bread mould and mushrooms break down the food material outside the body and then absorb it.
- Bread mould will digest external dead organic substances and ingest the nutrients. This organism carries out saprophytism and is known as saprophytes.
- Fungi get their nutrition by absorbing organic compounds from the environment.
- A saprotroph is an organism that obtains nutrients from non-living organic matter, usually dead and decaying plant or animal matter, by absorbing soluble organic compounds.
- Bread mould and mushroom are both fungi.
- Hyphae absorb nutrients from the environment. As fungi grow, hyphae extend into the food source and release enzymes that break down their food to be absorbed through cell walls.
