Mold is a type of fungus. Fungi are a separate kingdom of organisms that are distinct from plants, animals, and bacteria. Mold is a type of filamentous fungus that grows in multicellular structures called hyphae.

Mold is commonly found in damp and dark environments such as bathrooms, kitchens, basements, and on rotting food. An example of where mold can be found is on bread that has been left out for too long and has become moldy.
