b

d

detailed solution

Correct option is A

In deuteromycetes, plasmogamy is brought about by fusion of two vegetative or somatic cells of different strains and is instantly not followed by karyogamy. This leads to the formation of a dikaryotic stage in basidiomycetes. This dikaryotic mycelium is long lived and predominant in basidiomycetes.
