Growth Form versus Taxonomic Group
This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.
State
"Mold," "yeast," and "mushroom" name growth forms, not taxonomic groups — one fungal phylum can include species showing any of the three.
Show
Aspergillus grows as a fuzzy mold and classifies within Ascomycota, the same phylum that includes non-mold sac fungi like morels.
Watch for
"Mold and mushroom are unrelated," per Bio 2047, confuses growth form with ancestry — this entry restores the distinction.
