Question: The fungi which derive their food directly from dead organic matter are known as?
Saprophytic fungi. These fungi get their energy and nutrition from the break-down of dead organic matter such as leaves, dead plants, and dead animals; and are essential for breaking down organic material into its smaller components and releasing the recycled nutrients and energy back into the environment. Many of these fungi live in and on the ground, as well as in water bodies and damp places. Examples include mushrooms, slime molds and molds.
