Mold commonly contaminates starchy foods and when certain types of this contamination are ingested, it can cause miscarriages, birth defects, and some cancers. Most commonly, mold appears on old bread, and decaying fruit. Mildew is a mold growth that is visible on plants, walls, leather, paper, cloths, and damp areas. It is easy to see that mold is a fungus that can be both helpful and harmful.

3. Mushrooms

A fleshy, spore-bearing fruiting body of a fungus, typically produced above ground on soil or on its food source. It typically consists of a stem, cap and gills. Some are harmful and some are not. Some mushrooms are edible and have successfully been cultivated for human consumption. A mushroom develops from a nodule, or pinhead, less than two millimeters in diameter. Many species of mushrooms seemingly appear overnight, growing or expanding rapidly. In reality all species of mushrooms take several days to form primordial mushroom fruit bodies, though they do expand rapidly by the absorption of fluids.
