Mushrooms do contain protein, but not nearly as much as meats. Mushrooms contain around 3 grams of protein per 100 grams. Meats such as beef, lamb and pork contain around 20 to 30 grams of protein per 100 grams. Chicken contains around the same protein as meats. Fish is slightly lower, but at around 15 to 20 grams per 100 grams it clearly beats mushrooms. Mushrooms obtained their reputation as 'meat for vegetarians' because of the relatively high content of Vitamin B 12 in some varieties. It is unclear whether the vitamin B12 is found in the fungi itself, or in the fertilizer in which mushrooms are grown!
Yes about 1.5 g of proteins found in 10 g of mushroom. It is having some peculiar proteins such as lectins that has anit-cancer properties. It is also believed that they contain anti viral and bacterial protein, research is under progress.
Yes. All living things have a mitochondria, which means that they all use ATP's and cellular respiration. Mushrooms do have mitochondria but that is not true of all living things, bacteria do not have mitochondria.
Magic mushrooms come in only 2 real species, neither of which are "lepta" mushrooms.
Mushrooms are asexual
Mushrooms, the fruiting bodies of fungi, are high in fiber and protein, and provide vitamins and minerals. Mushrooms are known to contain the antioxidants Ergothioneine and Selenium1. Mushrooms are thought to benefit the immune system, and the oyster mushroom is known to contain cholesterol inhibiting compounds known as statins. In addition, certain mushrooms are known to have antibacterial, antiviral, and antifungal properties in cell culture (in vitro).

I don't know, but MYCO Protein is derived from fungus (mushrooms).
The answer is a big Yes! Besides tofu, mushrooms are much more flavorful and a delicious way to diet. The large ones are the best substitute for meat. It contains lots of protein, no fat, and high in minerals and vitamins. Substitute red meat with mushrooms and you'll get the same protein as well as other nutrients.
Some people like the taste. Also, mushrooms have fiber, potassium, protein, iron, and a lot of vitamin D, with few carbs, calories or fat.
mushrooms are mostly protein, so yes they are good for you if that's what you want for your protein source. Not much in the way of vitamins or anti oxidants, just protein.
Yes. All living things have a mitochondria, which means that they all use ATP's and cellular respiration. Mushrooms do have mitochondria but that is not true of all living things, bacteria do not have mitochondria.
Quorn is a brand name for food products made of mycoprotein (fungal protein from mushrooms/truffles). I am not a vegetarian myself, but I have never heard of a vegetarian type who would not eat mushrooms or truffles.
Legumes (dried beans and peas) are low in carbohydrates and high in protein. Other vegetables with similar nutritional value include asparagus, cauliflower, and mushrooms.
That is not an easy requirement, since most foods that are low in carbohydrates do contain some cholesterol. However, I can recommend raw celery, and mushrooms (but not sauteed mushrooms, that would add cholesterol).

Morel Mushrooms and Deer Antler are not the same. Deer antler mushrooms are mushrooms carved from deer antlers. Morel Mushrooms are a form of an edible mushroom.
