Yeast
Yeasts and other unicellular fungi can
reproduce by budding, or pinching of
a new cell.
Many multicellular species
produce variety of different asexual spores
that are easily dispersed and resistant to
harsh environmental conditions. When the
conditions are right, these spores will
germinate and colonize new habitats.
The ecological function and biodiversity
of yeasts are relatively unknown compared
to those of other microorganisms. Besides
that, yeasts, have been found living in
betweens peoples toes as part of their skin
flora. Yeasts are also present in the gut flora
of mammals and some insects and even
deep-see environments host an array of
yeasts.
Yeast source of energy comes from
glucose. In the presence of oxygen, it
Penicillium
Penicillium grows mostly on fruits such
as lemons.
Its hyphae consist of
Septa(cross walls sing: septum).
Its
conidrophore branches with the tips of
conidium can be spread by wind to suitable
substrate of food. Penicilin is an antibiotic
that can be extracted from the fungus
Penicillium notatum and can be used to
inhibit the growth of bacteria.

Mould
When food, leather or wood are placed in
dark and moist surroundings, mould will
grow on it. Mould is formed from a network
of filaments known as hyhae. Some hyphae
grow upwards and the tips of the hyphae
enlarge to form a spherical structure known
as the sporangium.
Each sporangium
consists of numerous spores. Some of the
hyphae penetrate into the substrate to get
nutrients.
