The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Term "Homothallic":** - The term "homothallic" in fungi refers to a reproductive condition where an organism has both male and female reproductive structures. This means that a single organism can produce both types of gametes. 2. **Identifying Related Terms:** - The homothallic condition is synonymous with "monoecious," which means that both reproductive organs are present in the same individual. This is in contrast to "dioecious," where individuals are either male or female. 3. **Analyzing the Options:** - **Option 1: "Dioecious condition"** - This refers to organisms having only one type of sex organ (either male or female). This is incorrect for homothallic fungi. - **Option 2: "Unisexual condition"** - Similar to dioecious, this indicates the presence of only one sex organ. This is also incorrect. - **Option 3: "Bisexual condition"** - This aligns with the definition of homothallic, as it indicates the presence of both sex organs in the same organism. This is correct. - **Option 4: "More than one option is correct"** - Since only one option (the third one) is correct, this is incorrect. 4. **Conclusion:** - The correct answer is **Option 3: Bisexual condition**, as it accurately describes the homothallic nature of certain fungi.
