Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Spores are typically the result of meiosis, which produces haploid cells. Therefore, option D is correct. Option A can be eliminated because meiosis precedes spore production. Option B is incorrect because spores can also be produced by bacteria and some plants. Option C is incorrect because spores can also be produced by non-endophytic fungi. Option E is incorrect because spores are indeed cells - they are reproductive structures that can develop into new organisms.
