The fungus family.

Molds are group of fungi called hyphomycetes. These are characterized by filamentous hyphae and producing air borne spores or conidia. These are basically decomposers and produce antibiotic substances.

Mushrooms are another group of fungi belonging to the family Agaricaceae. Mushrooms have a macroscopic fruiting body producing sexual spores. Some mushrooms are poisonous, others are edible and are a good source of proteins and minerals.
