Passage: Specialized structures for reproduction: One example is a fruiting body. Just like a fruit is involved in the reproduction of a fruiting plant, a fruiting body is involved in the reproduction of a fungus. A mushroom is a fruiting body , which is the part of the fungus that produces spores ( Figure below ). The spores are the basic reproductive units of fungi. The mycelium remains hidden until it develops one or more fruiting bodies. Answer: fungi
Spores are the basic reproductive units of what organism?
