Question

Bread mold gets its food
A. Through photosynthesis
B. Nonliving matter
C. By eating herbivorous animals
D. All the above

Answer 1

Hint: Rhizopus stolonifer is known as bread mold. It is a widely distributed thread-like mucoralean mold. This is commonly found on the surface of the bread.

Complete explanation:
Option A Through photosynthesis: Photosynthesis is the process used by plants to convert light energy into chemical energy, through cellular respiration. The chemical energy is stored in carbohydrate molecules. Photosynthesis is related to plants. Plants prepare their food through photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is not the process by which bread mold gets its food.
Option A is wrong.
Option B Nonliving matter: Bread mold gets its food from non-living matter. Bread mold is a thread-like structure that is seen on the surface. It takes the food and nutrients from the bread and causes damage to the bread.
Option B is correct.
Option C By eating herbivorous animals: Herbivorous animals are those animals that eat plants. Carnivores are the one who eat the animals. Bread mold is an organism that is found only on the surface of the bread. They are small organisms that do not eat herbivorous animals.
Option C is wrong.
Option D All of the above: This option is wrong because bread molds are only seen on the surface of the bread. They absorb their food and nutrients from the surface of the bread. Photosynthesis is the process by which plants prepare their food. And carnivorous animals eat herbivorous animals. And bread mold gets its food from non-living matters.
Option D is wrong
