The correct Answer is:
To solve the assertion and reason question regarding Basidiomycetes and Ascomycetes, we will analyze both statements step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze the Assertion - **Assertion**: In Basidiomycetes, basidiospores are produced endogenously in the basidium. - **Explanation**: In Basidiomycetes, the basidiospores are actually produced exogenously, not endogenously. The basidium is a specialized structure where these spores are formed on the outside, which contradicts the assertion. ### Step 2: Analyze the Reason - **Reason**: In Ascomycetes, ascospores are produced exogenously in ascus. - **Explanation**: In Ascomycetes, ascospores are produced endogenously within a sac-like structure called the ascus. This means that the reason provided is also incorrect. ### Step 3: Conclusion - Since both the assertion and the reason are incorrect, the correct option is: - **Option D**: Both are wrong. ### Final Answer Both the assertion and the reason are incorrect. Therefore, the answer is Option D: Both are wrong. ---
