Bread rising: yeast at work, sentence 20

Mould is a fungus related to yeast that grows from spores on damp bread; penicillin, a life-saving medicine, was first found from a mould, but mould on bread can be harmful, so mouldy bread goes in the bin.

Who acts: Mould, yeast, mouldy bread · What happens: be, grow, save, find, go · To what, where: fungus, penicillin, mould, bin
