"From mushrooms to molds, fungi have always proven to be tricky subjects for the scientists who have studied them. Despite sharing certain characteristics with both animals and plants, these strange and wondrous organisms are in a class by themselves - the Kingdom Fungi. In Fungi, students examine the characteristics these simple organisms, from their unusual methods of consuming food to their use of spores in reproduction.
