There is a juice in your stomach called


 acid that helps break down food. Fungi

 use a similar juice to break down its

 food. Here is a fungus eating fruit. This

 fungus is called mold. Mold doesn’t

 grow mushrooms.


































      Fungi, though, do not have stomachs.


      Fungi take the broken-down food right

      into their bodies. This fungus is eating

      dead leaves.
