What is spore formation?
Spore formation mainly occurs in non-flowering plants like in fungi, which is a type of asexual reproduction. A thousand spores are produced by the plants, which further grow into new plants. The organism does not need male and female reproductive organs. Organisms do not waste their energy unnecessarily in producing male and female gametes. The majority of sporangia produce haploid spores through meiosis
Spores are single-celled minute entities that can be motile in some cases but not in others. These can include a variety of things, such as:
Zoospore– Although these spores move due to the presence of flagella, they lack a proper cell wall. Chlamydomonas, an alga, and Albugo fungus are two examples.
Aplanospore- These spores are generated from a portion of a vegetative cell and do not have motility. Haematococcus and vaucheria are two examples of lower fungus and algae.
