7. Copyright © 2004 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Pathogenic dimorphic fungi are yeastlike at 37°C and moldlike at 25°C Dimorphism in the fungus Mucor indicus depends on CO2 concentration. On the agar surface, it exhibits yeastlike growth, but in agar it is moldlike. Dimorphism Figure 12.4

13. PlasmogamyHaploid donor cell nucleus (+) penetrates cytoplasm of recipient cell (–) Karyogamy+ and – nuclei fuse to form a diploid zygote nucleus. MeiosisDiploid nucleus produces haploid nuclei (sexual spores) Sexual reproduction
