Practice Reading: Fill in The Blanks (Drag & Drop) ID: #34212 Fungus
Instructions
* Drag the correct answer into all target fields
Observe  the  dilemma  of  the  fungus:  it  is  a  plant,  but  it  possesses  no  chlorophyll.  While  all  other  plants  put  the  suns  energy  to  work  for  them  combining  the  nutrients  of    and  air  into  the  body  structure,  the  fungus  must  look  elsewhere  for  energy  .
In  this  search  for  energy,  the  fungus  has  become  the  earths  major  source  of  rot  and  .  Wherever  you  see  mold  forming  on  a  piece  of  bread,  or  a  pile  of  leaves  turning  to  compost,  or  a  blown-down  tree  becoming  pulp  on  the  ground,  you  are  watching  a  fungus  eating.  Without  fungus  action,  the  earth  would  be  piled  high  with  the  dead  plant  life  of  past  centuries.  In  fact,  certain  plants  that    resins  that  are  toxic  to  fungi  will  last  indefinitely;  specimens  of  the  redwood,  for  instance,  can  still  be  found  resting  on  the  forest  floor  centuries  after  having  been    down.
