00:01 Hello students, so today's question is about the fungi and they have given us different taxons in the fungi and these are the different characteristics of the fungi and these are the pictures.

00:12 These are the pictures we can see bessidio micotta, escomycotta and more.

00:16 Next they have given us different options and we have to find the correct answer.

00:22 So first is zygomycetus or basalt axon no.

00:26 Because we can see that in zygomycetus they have a zoosporensiocer, they have a zusperens as the sexual stage, as the sexual stage, but basalt axon is something that is less advanced than today.

00:38 Basal taxone is something that is basic, basic and even less advanced, less advanced than today.

00:48 So it is actually the taxon that has started the course of evolution.

00:53 That has started the course of evolution and that is actually ancestor to all the existing species of the today.

01:01 So that is an ancestral species.

01:04 But we can see that it is having the sexual stage but those who are the basalt axons having, they were just spores not having the sexual stage.

01:15 So this is incorrect.

01:16 Next is besidomycitis is related to the zygomycitis than to escomycitis.

01:22 No.

01:23 Then glomerocytes are basaltaxone.

01:26 Again incorrect...
