Solution

The correct option is B Deuteromycetes
Parasexuality was first discovered in Aspergillus nidulans. The parasexual cycle is a process which takes place in the Deuteromycetes and single-celled organisms. This process occurs in the fungi which can reproduce asexually. During this process, the events like the fusion of the protoplasm, fusion of the nucleus and haploid cell formation take place.
Thus, the correct answer is option B.
