Hello guys today I went for a walk and I noticed that fungi are everywhere in very large numbers—in the soil and the air, in lakes, rivers, and seas, on and within plants and animals, in food and clothing, and in the human body. Together with bacteria, fungi are responsible for breaking down organic matter and releasing carbon, oxygen, nitrogen, and phosphorus into the soil and the atmosphere. Fungi are essential to many household and industrial processes, notably the making of bread, wine, beer, and certain cheese's. Fungi are also used as food; for example, some mushrooms, morels, and truffles are epicurean delicacies, and mycroproteins (fungal proteins), derived from the mycelia of certain species of fungi, are used to make foods that are high in protein.
