Can fungi make their own food?
No, fungi are consumers not producers. They decompose or parasitize other organisms.
Why does mold grow faster on yeast?
I question whether it does. Yeast and molds are both fungi. Fungi do not typically feed on other fungi. However, since yeast thrives in a warm, wet environment with a sufficient supply of food, molds would also thrive in this environment.
How do fungi eat their food?
Fungus gets its food from eating other organisms, which in todays society we call heterotrophic. Heterotrophic means we, and fungi, eat other organisms to obtain energy. Like fungi, we also secrete digestive enzymes into our digestive environment. It's just that we have made this environment portable and keep it within our bodies. Vocabulary words:Heterotrophic-To eat another organism to obtain energy. (example: us, fungi, etc.)
Does fungi make their food?
No. Fungi do not make their food. Things that make their own food are called "Producers" Plants are a producer, but Fungi are Decomposers, which means that they secret digestive juices on nearby life forms, and then they absorb that living thing's nutrients.
What do fungi secret to obtain nutrients?
Fungi have a type of "root " system called hyphae. They are essentially the same as roots on a plant except that a mushroom or other type of fungi doesn't rely on photosynthesis instead absorbing all it's need nutrients through these hyphae.
