Asexual reproduction in ascomycetes (the phylum Ascomycota) is by the formation of conidia, which are borne on specialized stalks called conidiophores. The morphology of these specialized conidiophores is often distinctive of a specific species and can therefore be used in identification of the species.
Kingdom Animalia, Phylum Cnidaria The phylum Cnidaria includes organisms with a variety of radially symmetrical forms; all are carnivores. The life cycle of some cnidarians includes both a medusa (jellyfish) stage and a polyp (attached) stage. Medusae are usually free-floating, and often produce gametes. Polyps are fleshy columns with an attachment at one end and a mouth and tentacles at the other end.
