Cooking also activates other nutrients, such as for dark greens such as spinach which is full of oxalic acid which breaks down during cooking so you can absorb more calcium and iron.
The mushrooms you posted definitely are absorbed better in the body by cooking them. All mushrooms have chitin in the cell wall that needs to break down by cooking to digest.
