Vedclass · Answer

(A) : Morels are Ascomycetes with edible ascocarps that have a fleshy,sponge-like conical cap or pileus and a stalk-like stipe,e.g.,$Morchella$ $esculenta$. Truffles are also edible members of Ascomycetes with tuber-like subterranean ascocarps that are often dug out with the help of trained dogs and pigs,e.g.,$Tuber$ $aestivum$. Therefore,the statement that morels and truffles are poisonous is incorrect,as they are considered delicacies.
