STATION 8. Examine the Petri-plate culture using microscope A and the slide using microscope B at this station. (Click on the microscope to look through it.) Note: Both microscopes are focused on the same species of organism.

C) What is the structure indicated by the pointer on B?
D) What is the function of structure indicated by the pointer on B?
Answers: A) Eukarya B) Fungi C) sporangium

(reproduction would only get half credit since this structure is not involved in
sexual reproduction)
(Note: This is Rhizopus stolonifer hyphae in the culture plate picture
and a stained slide of Rhizopus stolonifer hyphae and sporangia. Remember that
fungi typically grow in hyphal form and that they reproduce asexually using
sporangia or conidia.)
