Environment ’s effect on Growth of Bread Molds I. INTRODUCTION A. BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY Molds are species of fungi.

BACKGROUND RESEARCH Mold is a type of fungus that grows on plant and food and is most often associated with damp‚ musty locations such as bathrooms‚ basements‚ and attics.

In addition to molds ugly appearance‚ it can also
