What is zygospores

Answer 1

Zygospores are a type of sexual spore produced by fungi and some protists during the process of sexual reproduction. They are produced when two haploid cells, each from a different parent, fuse together to form a diploid zygote. This zygote undergoes meiosis to produce genetically diverse offspring. Zygospores are typically thick-walled and can survive in harsh environmental conditions until they are able to germinate and grow into new individuals.
