Fungi
In this Class 9 Science topic, students explore fungi as a distinct group within the diversity and classification of living organisms. They learn to identify key features such as the absence of chlorophyll, thread-like hyphae, mycelium, and spore formation, and understand how fungi obtain nutrition by decomposing organic matter. Examples such as yeast, moulds, and mushrooms help connect classification with everyday life, including useful roles in food and medicine and harmful effects such as spoilage and disease.
