Question

How do fungi help in recycling of dead organic materials in nature?

Answer 1

Fungi:

• Fungi are non-green multicellular plant-like organisms.
• Fungi are heterotrophic in nature and therefore can't prepare their own food.
• Examples- Yeast and Mushrooms.
• Fungi and bacteria break down organic matter in dead plants and animals, converting it to simple soluble minerals, water, and gases.
• Later these are then released into the soil, water bodies, and air.
