Best Answer

Bacteria are streaked for isolation because they are UNICELLULAR and individual cells can be separated through streaking (creating colonies that arise from one single bacterial cell). Molds are MULTIcelluar and cannot be isolated; the cells need each other to form a mold. Single celled/unicellular fungi are called yeasts.
