Here is a way to grow your own mould

Dear Student

In order to grow bread mold, we would have to follow these steps:
1. Take a bread.
2. Moisten it a bit by water.
3. Keep it in a plate 
4. Leave the plate undisturbed until grey coloured hair like structures (bread mold) can be seen on the surface. 

The bread mold grows in the form of fine threads and form cottony masses on the surface of things such as bread and cheese. These threads are called hyphae. Some of the hyphae are root-like and grow downwards (rhizoid) while some may grow upwards from the surface. The black dots seen on the contaminated bread are actually their spore sacs (sporangium) present at the tip of the hyphae. The sexual and asexual reproduction of fungi takes place via these spores.
