Fungi: mushrooms, mould and yeast, sentence 4

Without fungi forests would drown in dead wood, bread would be flat, and the first antibiotic would never have been found; but some are deadly poisonous, so wild mushrooms are for looking at, never for eating.

Who acts: fungi forests, some, wild mushrooms · What happens: drown, be, not find, look, not eat · To what, where: dead wood, first antibiotic
