Answer:
Option (c) produced by fungal hyphae in basipetal chains
Explanation:
Conidium, a type of asexual reproductive spore of fungi (kingdom Fungi) usually produced at the tip or side of hyphae (filaments that make up the body of a typical fungus) or on special spore-producing structures called conidiophores.
Conidia can be formed at the base of a chain which is called the basipetal mode of spore formation. The acervulus is a flat layer of fungal hyphae that forms conidia and often is immersed in the tissue of the plant host.
