Study notes
Penicillin came from a mould contaminating Fleming's petri dish (1928) — a fungus that kills bacteria, now history's most life-saving accident. Athlete's foot and ringworm are fungi eating your skin's keratin. The 1840s Irish potato famine — a fungus-like oomycete (Phytophthora) — killed a million people, reshaping nations through emigration.
