Question

The hyphae of aspergillus are ________.
A. Aseptate and multinucleate
B. Septate and multinucleate
C. Aseptate and antinucleate
D. Septate and antinucleate

Answer 1

Hint: Aspergillus are the known genus which consists of the mould species that are found worldwide. These lives in the environment. There are more fungus that are surrounded in the atmosphere and it also includes aspergillus in which humans inhale them. Here, we are going to find the correct hyphae of the aspergillus. Through some of the information, it could be found and analyzed.

Complete answer:
Aspergillus are responsible for the growth of the plants and soil. This was first discovered by Pier Antonio Micheli in the year 1729. These are found both outdoors and indoors. There are about 180 species in which 40 can cause diseases in humans. These are very much prevalent in the air. These have black, brown spores with them. The following are the characteristics of the genus aspergillus. They are as follows:

HIGHER CLASSIFICATION	Trichocomaceae
SCIENTIFIC NAME	Aspergillus
CLASS	Eurotiomycetes
KINGDOM	Fungus
ORDER	Eurotiales

 These species have the range of diameter from 2.5 micrometer to 4.5 micrometer. These have the septate hyphae. These may tend to the dichotomous branching of the genus. They are mostly apparent. Some of the species are pathogenic to living beings like plants and animals. Here, the hyphae are separated by the cross walls and are branched. The hyphae here are septate and multinucleate.

So, the correct answer is Option B.

Note:
Aspergillus are very much important both in medical and commercial. These can also cause infections in both animals and humans. Some of them can produce poisonous substances known as mycotoxins. Also, these can cause disease in the human ear and cause otomycosis. These are some economic importance of the aspergillus.
