Spore formation is a type of asexual reproduction. It is also called as sporogenesis. The sporogenesis is formation of spore for the purpose of reproduction. It is takes place in fungus, Rhizopus and to produce some flowers and fruits.
Process of Spore Formation / Sporogenesis:
a)The spores are basically single celled called particles that are used for formation of new organisms.
b) The spores are released from the sporangia of a particular plant.
c) When the spores are matured, they will start release from sporangium.
d) The released spores will diffuse of spread through air, water and insect. When the spores will settle, they will germinate and new organism will formed.
Advantages of Spore Formation:
a) The large number of spores will produced in short period of time
b) For the spore formation, less energy will required.
c) Spores will get diffuse or spread on its own; they don’t require any route for spread.
