Best Answer

There are fungus spores floating around in the air. If you leave food out at room temperature the spores land on the food and start growing by feeding on the bread. Covering the food, such as leaving it in a sealed bag, prevent the spores landing on the food. Putting the food in the fridge stops the fungus growing because it does not like cold temperatures.

Yeast is used to make bread rise, but yeast is not a fungus. It is a separate category of microorganism.
