Which is an example of a unicellular fungus, found as an exception?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Yeast

Direct answer: B is correct. Most fungi are multicellular and filamentous. Their body commonly consists of thread-like hyphae, which together form a mycelium. Yeast is an important exception because it is generally unicellular. It is a fungus and commonly reproduces by budding; it is also widely associated with fermentation. A is wrong because a mushroom is a multicellular reproductive structure produced by a filamentous fungus. C is wrong because Penicillium forms a network of microscopic hyphae and is treated as a filamentous multicellular fungus at this level. D is wrong because Mucor also has a filamentous hyphal body and is not the standard unicellular exception. The question asks for an example, not for the only unusual fungus in all biology. Memory cue: “most fungi have hyphae; yeast is the familiar one-cell exception.”
