Figure 22.15: Zygospore Fungi Produce Sporangiophores These transparent structures are sporangiophores produced by a zygospore fungus growing on decomposing animal dung. The sporangiophores grow toward the light and end in tiny sporangia, which the stalked sporangiophores can eject as far as 2 meters. Animals ingest sporangia that land on grass and then disseminate the spores in their feces.
