Fungi
Fungi are made up of a web of mycelium that are
normally never seen. This complex web of the 'fungi' weaves through the
forest floor, tree stump or rotting food. When conditions are just right
it becomes sexually mature and sends the fruiting structure to the surface.
This is what we see as the mushroom, breadmold or shelf-fungus. There
are three types of fungus. Basidiomycetes are the typical mushrooms. Ascyomycetes
are the shelf-fungi and yeasts and the Zygomycetes are the bread molds.
