Fungi are eukaryotic and saprophytic microorganisms that grow on dead and decaying matter. These organisms release digestive enzymes that break down  leaves, fruit and other organic material into simple molecules. These can grow on wood, clothes, food, fruits, leather shoes, etc by breaking down complex organic matter into simpler forms with the help of extracellular digestive enzymes such as cellulases, proteases, phosphatases, etc.

List the three laws of Newton in your words. Give an example of each.
OLga [1]

1. For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction

2. Force = mass times acceleration

3. An object at rest tends to stay at rest and an object in motion tends to stay in motion unless acted on by another force.

3. One example is a rock rolling down a hill. You could use a stick or your foot to stop it, but otherwise it would keep rolling

2. An example for law No.2 is pushing a shopping cart. If you push an empty shopping cart, it will go faster than a full shopping cart because the full shopping cart has more mass.

1. One example is a cup on a table. The cup exerts a force down on the table due to gravity, the table exerts an equal and opposite force on the cup to stop it falling through the table
