Fungi, from the mushrooms you eat to yeast on your bread. Fungi can be really deadly but they are also really helpful. Let's understand about fungi. Fungi have mycelium which is in charge of extracellular digestion. Each strand of mycelium could be called hyphae. Hyphae could reproduce sexually which I will be telling about later. Fungi could cause diseases such as athlete's foot and be poisonus. Fungi can be deadly if you inhale their spores or if you eat a poisonus species of fungi. Fungi can reproduce both sexually and asexually, either way makes spores. Fungi could reproduce asexally using a process called budding. Parts of hyphae could grow into new fungi. Sexual reproduction in fungi is differnt in other organisms. If hyphae are near each other the could reproduce sexually. Fungi are decomposer which means they eat deceased organisms. They release toxins that break down the food, so that the nutrients will be released. This is really helpful as without fungi ther
