The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the phenomenon called Diplanetism in some fungi, we will analyze each option provided and determine which one accurately describes Diplanetism. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the term "Diplanetism":** - Diplanetism refers to a phenomenon in certain fungi where there is a formation of two different types of successive reproductive structures or spores in the life cycle of the fungus. 2. **Evaluate Option 1:** - **Statement:** Formation of the two different types of the thallus in the life cycle. - **Analysis:** This option is incorrect. Diplanetism does not refer to the formation of two different types of thalli but rather to the production of different types of spores. 3. **Evaluate Option 2:** - **Statement:** Formation of the two types of the successive juice pores in the life cycle. - **Analysis:** This option is correct. Diplanetism involves the successive production of different types of spores (juice pores) from a single fungal organism. 4. **Evaluate Option 3:** - **Statement:** Fungi existing in the two morphological forms. - **Analysis:** This option is incorrect. While some fungi may exhibit different morphological forms, this does not specifically define Diplanetism. 5. **Evaluate Option 4:** - **Statement:** Completion of the life cycle in the two hosts. - **Analysis:** This option is incorrect. A life cycle that requires two hosts is referred to as a digenetic life cycle, not Diplanetism. 6. **Conclusion:** - After evaluating all options, the correct answer is **Option 2: Formation of the two types of the successive juice pores in the life cycle.**
