Which content area text would provide the MOST scientific information about the growth and formation of mold? A) a biology textbook B) a zoology textbook C) an economics textbook D) a family consumer science textbook

Zoology, or animal biology, exclusively studies organisms in the animal kingdom. Mould is made up of microorganisms (possibly fungi) rather than animals. Since microorganisms and animals may have completely different growth patterns, a zoology textbook may contain limited information, unless there is any similarity to animal growth and formation.

An economics textbook does not concern itself with the behaviour of living organisms, and is therefore likely to have no information on the growth and formation of organisms inside or outside of the animal kingdom.

A family consumer science textbook most likely has simplified information on most areas, since it aims to be comprehensive and manageable for consumers, as well as easy to read for children and adults alike. Any information on a specific topic such as the growth and formation of mould is not likely to have supporting scientific detail (e.g. graphs, data collection), but rather a summary of what are considered to be key points.
