Filamentous microfungi play an important role in the environment and they can have either a positive impact on a man, e.g. in a form of medicine or food production, or a negative one, when filamentous microfungi may cause diseases or deteriorate food.

The other two practical tasks have been elaborated for the distance form of study via exploration tasks, which can be carried out at home conditions. It means creation of a mycological garden and observation what kind of bakery products is more prone to be affected by microfungi. The other elaborated tasks relate to across-the-curriculum use of the filamentous microfungi topic in Maths and Czech, in which some...
