- 2-718-281-828 5y agono - a mushroom is a large fruiting body of a fungi. if you want to know what I mean look at the pictures.
- lproven 5y agoNo. I would guess you are thinking of "toadstool" versus "mushroom". Fungi is a technical term for a type of organism, not the fruiting body.
- 2-718-281-828 5y agotoadstool is colloquial for poisonous mushroom.
- lproven 5y agoI know. But while all toadstools are mushrooms, not all mushrooms are toadstools...
