How does mold grow on fruit?

Answer:
Fruit are exposed to spores from their formation to your refrigerator. These spores germinate and grow along the surface of the fruit looking for an opening in the outer covering. Once found, the fungus begins to send in hyphae and continue to grow. When enough growth has occurred, the fungus will produce conidia, or spores.
