A mushroom is the fleshy, spore-bearing fruiting body of a fungus, typically produced above ground on soil. Mushrooms contain no chlorophyll and most are considered saprophytes. That is, they obtain their nutrition from metabolizing non living organic matter and live on their food source.

Some mushrooms are edible, while others are extremely poisonous.
