Q: What is the common term for single-celled fungi?


Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers:

Most fungi are multicellular, but some exist as single cells. Single-celled fungi are known as yeasts. Fungi spend most of their life cycle in the haploid state. They form diploid cells only during sexual reproduction. Like the cells of protists and plants, the cells of fungi have cell walls. But fungi are unique in having cell walls made of chitin instead of cellulose. Chitin is a tough carbohydrate that also makes up the exoskeleton (outer skeleton) of insects and related organisms.
