The polarity of the water molecule helps it to cohere to nearby water molecules, forming a skin over it.
Fungi are effective decomposers, saprophytic fungi grow towards their food source, mycelia produce extracellular enzymes to digest food outside of hyphae, saprophytic fungi like miners: they blast away lignin to expose cellulose, fungi use other enzymes to degrade cellulose to glucose.
Hope this helped :)
Have a great day
Enzymes
Enzymes have an active site where the substrate meets. This is where and how products are broken down. The break down of substrates through the use of enzymes is referred to as the lock and key model. Hope this helps
