WHAT IS MOLD?

Mold is something that we often take for granted, as something that makes us have to throw the bread away or the cheese smell bad.
Mold is, in fact, a fascinating organism which has had many different uses over the years and our lives would not be the same without it.
Most of us know that food seems to become moldy more quickly in the summer, when it is warm, than in the winter when it is colder. Food in refrigerators seems to keep longer than food left out in the sun. Is this true? Does temperature really affect the rate at which mold grows?
