Kentaurus Webster Ms. Mulvanny 8th Grade Science December 13‚ 2012 What Causes Mold on bread? The question I am trying to answer is what causes mold on bread. I think that mold is fungus. Mold spores are everywhere: in the air‚ on your kitchen counters‚ on your skin etc. Mold likes to grow in environments where they can find nutrients like bread.

Metal Ions on Lichens Casey Stinnett ESC 1510 October 30‚ 2014 Introduction Lichens are a sybiotic association of fungus (mycobiont) and algae (Pediastrum boryanum . The fungus engulfs the algae‚ then supplies carbs‚ nitrogen‚ and vitamins while the algae photosynthesizes. This unusual relationship enables the lichen to grow in environments where neither fungus nor algae would normally be able to solely survive. They are found on every continent‚ ranging all the way from the freezing Arctic

infections is also very poor. Iron metabolism plays a very important role in regulating mucor infections. Deferoxamine predisposes patients to mucormycosisby supplying the fungus containing iron.From these findings‚ it is possible to treat the infection by using iron chelator as long as the chelator does not supply the fungus containing iron inappropriately. Previous information reveals that the concept of high-dose liposomal amphotericin is the most used monotherapy for mucormycosis (Suresh‚ 2003)
