No, penicillin is not an imperfect fungus. Penicillin is an antibiotic produced by the fungus Penicillium. Imperfect fungi are a group of fungi that have only asexual reproductive structures and do not fit neatly into the traditional fungal classification system.
Scientists often divide fungi into four groups: club fungi, molds, sac fungi, and imperfect fungi,Each type of fungi is classified based on the way it reproduces. The way that these fungi reproduce is difficult to understand and they are hard to classify into what would be called 'normal' sexual reproduction.

Imperfect fungi (or Fungi imperfecta) is another name for the phylum Deuteromycota.
I think it is parasitism because corn smut is the disease on a corn crop caused by fungi and so, fungi is taking nourishment from the corn crop but damaging it at the same time (corn smut..).
Fungi is a decomposer.
Imperfect fungi are fungi that do not have a known sexual reproductive stage, also known as Deuteromycetes. All other fungi can reproduce sexually and have both sexual and asexual reproductive stages.
Imperfect fungi are located every where, on land ,in water,in air, in and on bodies of living and dead organisms

Smut is typically caused by a group of fungi known as Ustilaginomycetes. These fungi produce dark spores that appear as a black or brownish powder on plant surfaces, such as cereal crops like corn or wheat. Smut fungi can infect plants through wounds or natural openings, spreading through wind and rain.
