i read somewhere that humans contain gametes and spores too.....is this true? i thought it was only plants....this is prally a stpuid question
I just saw in kaplan subject test #5 in question #13 it says "both animals and plants produce spores"
which animals produce spores??!?
No, it was actually a sentence in the explanations but don't worry, i think i got it, i asked reliable sources and this is what they said
"It depends - the word "spore" has had a very broad application. But Apicomplexans, previously called Sporozoans, are one type of animal that produces spores. They changed the name partly because it was decided that spores shouldn't be applied to animals, but in the protozoans you have species that have plant, animal, and fungus characteristics, so the term can't be totally avoided."
