Solution

The correct option is A
Rhizopus

Rhizopus or bread mould reproduces asexually by spore formation. It bears club-shaped structures called sporangium, which contain spores. These spores are released in the air by the sporangium. They then germinate in suitable environmental conditions to give rise to new bread mould fungi.
