Mar 06, 2013 - 4:55 pm. I finished chemotherapy therapy in September for stage !V colon cancer. I had my second CT scan last Monday and the Onc called today and left a message that I still have a tiny spot on my lung and two very small cysts on my liver. What alarmed me was the word still. I had never heard before today that I had ANY spots or cysts found on my previous scan. Needless to say...I was a little freaked out.
Spores are usually haploid and unicellular and are produced by meiosis in the sporangium of a diploid sporophyte. Under favourable conditions the spore can develop into a new organism using mitotic division, producing a multicellular gametophyte, which eventually goes on to produce gametes. Two gametes fuse to form a zygote which develops into a new sporophyte.
In biology, a spore is a unit of asexual reproduction that may be adapted for dispersal and for survival, often for extended periods of time, in unfavorable conditions. By contrast, gametes are units of sexual reproduction. Spores form part of the life cycles of many plants, algae, fungi and protozoa.Bacterial spores are not part of a sexual cycle but are resistant structures used for survival under unfavourable conditions.pores form part of the life cycles of many plants, algae, fungi and protozoa.
