FUNGUS WAYS OF LIFE
"MANY FUNGI LIVE ON DEAD ORGANIC MATTER. THESE ARE "SAPROPHYTES" (GREEK sapros, decayed, + phyton, plant). THEY GROW IN RICH EARTH OR IN WOOD, OR LIKE THE MOLDS FOUND ON BREAD, CHEESE AND BACON THEY GROW ON THE SURFACE OF SOME MATERIAL AND SEND INTO LITTLE ROOT-LIKE STRUCTURES THAT DRAW OUT THE NOURISHMENT. MANY OF THESE FUNGI HAVE ENZYMES THAT DIGEST WOOD AND OTHER SUBSTANCES THAT WE CANNOT DIGEST. A MUSHROOM GROWING IN THE EARTH USES AS FOOD THE FIBROUS MATERIALS OF PLANT REMAINS; A FUNGUS GROWING ON A DEAD LOG DIGESTS AND USES THE WOOD.
MANY FUNGI ARE PARASITES. THEY GROW IN OR ON LIVING THINGS AND TAKE THEIR NOURISHMENT FROM THEM."
