The correct Answer is:
### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Question**: The question asks where haploid spores of sac fungi occur. Sac fungi belong to the group Ascomycetes. 2. **Identifying the Options**: The options provided are: - Option 1: Ascocarp - Option 2: Basidiocarp - Option 3: Basidium - Option 4: Ascus 3. **Analyzing Each Option**: - **Ascocarp**: This is the fruiting body of Ascomycetes that contains asci. While it is related to the production of spores, it does not directly contain the haploid spores themselves. - **Basidiocarp**: This is the fruiting body of Basidiomycetes, which produces basidiospores, not haploid spores from sac fungi. - **Basidium**: This structure is involved in the reproduction of Basidiomycetes and produces basidiospores, which are also not haploid spores of sac fungi. - **Ascus**: This is the structure within the Ascomycetes where haploid spores are formed. It contains the meiotic products of a single diploid nucleus, resulting in haploid spores. 4. **Conclusion**: The correct answer is **Option 4: Ascus**, as this is where haploid spores of sac fungi are produced.
