Answer
Answer:
- B. spores produced in basidia
- D. important in the food industry
- F. can cause disease to plants
- G. can cause disease to animals
Brief Explanations:
Basidiomycota produce spores in basidia. Some are used in food - like mushrooms. Some can cause plant and animal diseases. They do have a reproduction phase and spores are not produced in zygosporangia (which is characteristic of Zygomycota). They are not typically known for being important in the fermentation process compared to yeasts (Ascomycota in some cases).
