Endospores

B.

Cysts

C.

Spores

Eggs

Answer and Explanation

The Correct Answer is C

A. Endospores: Endospores are resistant survival forms produced by some bacteria (e.g., Bacillus, Clostridium), not a fungal reproductive structure.
B. Cysts: Cysts are dormant/survival forms often seen in protozoa; fungi typically reproduce via spores.
C. Spores: Fungi reproduce and disperse primarily via spores (asexual and sexual types such as conidia, sporangiospores, ascospores, basidiospores).
D. Eggs: Eggs are multicellular reproductive cells of animals; fungi don’t produce eggs as their main reproductive units.
