How do the structures of the fruiting body and hyphae relate to their functions? A.The fruiting body is curved to help the uptake of decaying plant material, while the hyphae are long to increase gas exchange. B. The fruiting body is tall to allow for spore dispersal, while the hyphae are branched to increase the absorption of nutrients. C.The fruiting body is curved to improve absorption of water, while the hyphae are long to allow for reproduction. D.The fruiting body is tall to maximize photosynthesis, while the hyphae are branched to support the release of waste products.
