Solution

The correct options are
A The bread slice is covered with fungus.
C This is an example of asexual mode of reproduction.
The bread slice is covered with fungus (bread mould). Fungi reproduce through spore formation. Spore formation is a type of asexual reproduction. Here, the parent plant produces a large number of tiny spores. These spores can grow into new plants. E.g. Black powdery portion of a bread mould consists of several spores.
