Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Asexual spores, also known as mitospores, are produced through mitosis and do not involve the fusion of gametes. In Table 12.1, the spores 1, 4, 5, 6, and 7 are asexual spores as they are produced asexually by the parent organism without the involvement of fusion of gametes. Alternatively, spores 2, 3, and 8 are sexual spores as they are produced through the fusion of gametes during sexual reproduction.
