Solution

Starting with the two fungal mycelium that encounter each other, life cycle undergoes the following stages. They are as follows, 1. Plasmogamy

2. Karyogamy.

3. Meiosis

4. Germination

In plasmogamy the fusion of the cytoplasm of the two mycelium occurs without fusion of the nuclei, bringing the two haploid nuclei close together in the same cell.

2. This stage is karyogamy which means the fusion of two haploid nuclei.

3.This stage is called meiosis which helps in the production of spores.

4. This stage is called Germination where the germination of the spores occurs.

So the third step in the fungal life cycle would be meiosis where there is a production of spores.
