Solution

The correct option is A True

Gills in mushrooms:

  1. The gills of mushrooms produce spores which help in the process of reproduction.
  2. The gills of Musa mushrooms are the linear structures present on the underside of a mushroom’s cap which allow the spores to fall in a downward direction into the air.
  3. These spores are further carried out by natural pollinators such as wind, insects, etc., for the process of reproduction.
  4. These gills have two main purposes: The first is to maximize the surface area where the spores are produced, and the second is to help hold up the cap of the mushroom.
  5. Spores are produced in the Basidia—specialized cells that line the surface of the gills.

Final Answer: The given statement is true.
