Q.Members of phycomycetes are found in i. Aquatic habitats
ii. On decaying wood
iii. Moist and damp places
iv. As obligate parasites on plants Choose from the following options

Option (D) All of the above is correct.

• Phycomycetes members are found in aquatic habitats and on decaying wood in moist and damp places.
• They also occur as obligate parasites on plants — parasites unable to survive without their host. …
