Thanks for the question!!!
The answer is Bread mold fungus, Rhizopus stolonifer.
It is widely distributed and a thread-like mucoralean mold. It derives its food and nutrients from the bread and renders it inedible and unfit for consumption. It is a heterotrophic organism & obtains nutrients by absorption. It is parasitic in nature and establishes colony on its host causing it to rot. It secretes digestive juices containing enzymes, directly on the food.
Hope it is helpful to you and solved your query as well!!!
