What They AreSlide4
Bread Mold Reproduction:
Rhizopus, is a common type of fungus. It grows and reproduces the same way that most molds do. In asexual reproduction, the mold makes spores inside a sporangium
Moss reproduces:Like all bryophytes mosses, have two forms of reproduction,
Asexual
or vegetative reproduction and sexual reproduction.
Reproductive Category Slide5
Moss :
Sexual Reproduction
At regular intervals depending on species and weather condition, mosses produce small sexual structures known as
archegonium
(female structure that produces egg cells), or
antheridium
(male structure that produces sperm cells). These can occur on different parts of the same plant but more often on different plants.Slide6
Bread mold:
Rhizopus stolonifer
exhibits both sexual and asexual reproduction. The asexual phase occurs more frequently. The surrounding condition in which the mold resides, is the factor that causes either type of reproduction by the mold.Slide7
Similarities:
Bread Mold & Moss both reproduce sexually & asexually.
