It breaks down the bread starches into simple sugars
Bread gets moldy when it comes in contact with mold spores that are present in the air. Bread is a good food source for mold. Moisture paired with warm air causes the mold spores to reproduce rapidly.
Dried bread doesn't mold unless it is by some thing moist.Mold can only grow in moist areas (usually also somewhere warm)Once mold has begun to grow on bread, it can obtain some of the water it needs from the breakdown of starch (metabolic water) and the mold will continue to grow at a slower rate. Moisture loss will stimulate the production of spores.
Dairy products. But I would say bread because of the yeast. Mold thrives on yeast.
Eventually it can do that. Mold can grow on bread as well as any other food. Airborne mold spores only require a moist environment to thrive and colonize. This process is not as rapid though as compared to mold forming on food in a warmer environment.
All bread will grow Mold if it's old and stale, depending where the bread is kept i.e. if it's in a warm environment the mold will grow much more quickly, nothing to do with the type of bread.
This depends on the mold. eg: Bread molds grow on bread.
Rizoids :)
Rhizoids are structures that anchor bread mold to their food substrate . Rhizoids are type of hyphae for anchoring and absorption of digested food .
yes, you first have to grow mold on bread like rye bread or something and when mold is grown shake the piece of bread over another piece of food like an orange and leave that out and bread mold will grow on it.
The mould obtain its food by breaking down into simpler substance which they can absorb.
Water and bread do not combine to make mold. Mold is a living organism that grows from molt spores, which can be found in most environments. Mold needs moisture and food to grow, and the starch in bread is an excellent food source.
Preservative chemicals are sometimes added to bread to retard mold growth.

No. Bread mold grows on bread, hence the name.
To purposely grow mold on food for an experiment, you can place a piece of bread or fruit in a warm, damp environment with limited airflow. Keep the food covered to prevent contamination and check on it regularly to observe the growth of mold. It may take a few days to see visible mold colonies.

If you are talking about bread,probably a week or so.
