Solution

The microrganism he observed will be bread mould which belong to fungi.
Fungi are classified separately from plants and animals.
They need a host for getting nutrients, preferably a dead host as they cannot make their own food. Fungi grow in places that are warm and damp, even between our toes. They are commonly found in the kitchen, bread, served as food, etc.
