Solution
The correct option is B Zoospores
The motile reproductive structures of algae and fungi, which directly give rise to new individuals are called zoospores. It is a asexual motile spore. It uses flagella for locomotion. The zoospores are liberated either by the disintegration of the zoosporangial wall or by the formation of an apical pore on the zoosporangium. After liberation the zoospores swim for a while, then withdraw their flagella, encyst and ultimately germinate into new plants.So, the correct answer is option B.
