The mushroom that you see above ground is the fruiting ( flowering and spore bearing ) body of a fungus that lives under ground. Mushroom normally refers to the edible varieties, while toadstool refers to the poisonous or inedible ones.
The portion of a fungus that you see above the ground is usually the reproductive structure. This part is seen as the mushroom, but it is only a small part of a larger organism.
The mass of the fungus is below ground and the only part of the fungus above ground is the reproductive structures.
The stem and the cap. Also, depending on the variety, any spore that it may drop.

Describe how the above ground portion and the below ground portion of the ecosystem acts as two interrelated, interdependent communities
the above portion of the earth is called the earth's crust

Any object that is above the reference level (usually taken as ground level) has potential energy, according to the formula PE = mgh.Any object that is above the reference level (usually taken as ground level) has potential energy, according to the formula PE = mgh.Any object that is above the reference level (usually taken as ground level) has potential energy, according to the formula PE = mgh.Any object that is above the reference level (usually taken as ground level) has potential energy, according to the formula PE = mgh.
The mycelium of a fungus is similar in ways to the roots of other plants, in that they grow below ground. Unlike plants, however, the mycelium is the bigger part, while mushrooms are more like fruit, serving simply as the spore distributor.
The fruiting body grows above ground.

A toadstool
Sex organ (or fruiting body) of a fungus.
root neck
Taking the common mushroom as an example: we see the cap and the stalk, both being above ground. Below ground is the mycelium, which is the extensive fibrous root system.
The average weight of a large radish is 9 grams or 0.3 ounces. A small radish weighs between 1.5 and 2 grams.
Stem
No, they are usually in-ground. Many prefer fiberglass for it's lower cost, easier maintenance, and better algae control.
I have a number 4 model. the above ground portion weighs 200 lbs + or - a lb or 2
In ground swimming pools are usually bigger than above ground pools. Although rather more expensive, in ground pools will last longer than above ground pools.
