Correct answer:
The correct answer is option (C) hyphae are not divided by cross walls.
Explanation of Solution
Explanation/justification for the correct answer:
Option (C) Hyphae are not divided by cross walls. The aseptate fungi are those fungi in which the hyphae cells are not divided by the cross-walls that is termed as septa.So, the correct answer is option (C).
