The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to identify two groups of fungi based on their reproductive processes: one that immediately forms a diploid cell after the fusion of haploid cells, and another that goes through a dikaryotic stage. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Fungal Groups**: - Fungi are classified into several groups, including Phycomycetes, Ascomycetes, Basidiomycetes, and Deuteromycetes. - Each group has distinct reproductive characteristics. 2. **Identifying the Group that Forms Diploid Cells**: - **Phycomycetes**: In this group, when two haploid cells (n + n) fuse, they immediately form a diploid cell (2n). This means that the diploid phase occurs directly after the fusion of haploid cells. 3. **Identifying the Group with a Dikaryotic Stage**: - **Basidiomycetes**: In this group, after the fusion of two haploid cells, an intervening dikaryotic stage (n + n) occurs, known as the dikaryon. This means that the cells contain two nuclei from the two different haploid cells before eventually forming a diploid cell. 4. **Comparing the Options**: - Based on the characteristics: - **Phycomycetes** results in a diploid cell immediately. - **Basidiomycetes** has a dikaryotic stage. - Therefore, the correct pairing is **Phycomycetes** and **Basidiomycetes**. 5. **Final Answer**: - The correct answer is: **Phycomycetes, Basidiomycetes**.
