i'm doing a biology lab, and i need to have an explanation as to why bread grows best in these conditions. i am in IB senior biology, so please, only scientific explanations. no general explanations. i appreciate the intention for helping me, but i need to explain this using biological processes and scientific explanations.

Mold is saprophytic(it does not photosynthesize) so it does not need light. Moisture enables sporulation by making cell wall permeable. Warmth(heat) enables enzymatic reactions.
