Answer 1

Mold is a type of fungus. It is a multicellular organism that grows in the form of multicellular filaments called hyphae. An example of where mold can be found is in damp and dark areas in buildings, such as basements, bathrooms, and kitchens. Mold can also be found on food items that have been left out for too long.
