Question

Give one or two words for the following statements:- (i) Hyphae of Rhizopus that penetrate into the food material​

Answer 1

Answer:

Their hyphae penetrate the dead material and form a branching network called a mycelium. The tips of the growing hyphae produce enzymes which digest the organic material. ... When mould fungi, such as Rhizopus, grow on stale bread or rotting fruit, the mycelium can be seen as a greyish 'fuzz'.
