MOLD
Definition: Organic substance that requires oxygen & water to grow.
Mold breaks down plant matter by digesting for food.
![Page 9: INDOOR AIR QUALITY OFFICE OF RISK MANAGEMENT LOSS PREVENTION UNIT](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110320/56649ca25503460f949619c2/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
WITHOUT MOLD:
• We would be struggling w/large amounts of dead plant matter.
• We would not have penicillin
