Mold (fungi in general) require oxygen to grow, but they do not breath in the sense that you and I breath.
Fungi are not plants - their tissues are based around keratin, a protein, not cellulose, which is a carbohydrate and is the main plants tissue. They do not contain chlorophyll and do not produce oxygen.
Well, if something that can grow mold is in a open container, it is more likely to grow mold because oxygen can get to it easier. If it is sealed, it is harder for oxygen to get through the seal.
No , it is not essential .
No, mold cannot grow in human blood. Mold requires organic material, moisture, and oxygen to grow, and blood does not provide the necessary conditions for mold growth. Mold typically grows on surfaces like food, fabric, and building materials.
No. However, if mold has been growing then just drying the area and/or allowing sunlight to hit it does not kill the mold spores. The spores are dormant reproductive agents of the mold which allow it to regrow when conditions are right. The next time it is moist the mold will regrow. Mold is endemic (everywhere) in the atmosphere.

Yes
Yes, mold growth can be affected by oxygen levels. Mold requires oxygen to grow, and decreasing oxygen levels can slow down or inhibit its growth. However, complete removal of oxygen is usually not necessary to prevent mold growth; controlling moisture and humidity levels is more effective.
nothing. just leave it some where for a while and it will grow mold!

Mold does not require carbon dioxide to grow. It primarily needs moisture and organic material to thrive. Carbon dioxide is a byproduct of mold growth, but its presence is not necessary for mold development.
Because the higher the temperature is, the more moisture can be held in the air, and mold spores need a wet environment to grow.
Mold can grow better in the light because when fruits get into the dark they can spoil faster and get soft/ugly
Honey is a natural preservative and will not grow mold. It can be kept for a very long time and does not need to be refrigerated.
Anaerobic bacteria do not require oxygen to grow. Examples of anaerobic bacteria include Clostridium and Bacteroides species. These bacteria can survive and grow in environments with little to no oxygen.
