(D) $Rhizopus$ is a common bread mold belonging to the class Zygomycetes. During asexual reproduction,it produces sporangia at the tips of specialized hyphae called sporangiophores. These sporangia appear as black spots on the white cottony mycelium. Inside the sporangia,numerous spores are formed by mitosis,which are known as mitospores (specifically sporangiospores). Therefore,the black spots represent the sporangia containing mitospores.
