Each fungus will have vast numbers of these hyphae, all intertwining to make up a tangled web called the mycelium. The mycelium is generally too fine to be seen by the naked eye, except where the hyphae are very closely packed together. The picture on the left was taken through a microscope.
Unformed hyphae are called yeast, which are very useful and applicable in many industries and fields. On the other hand, mycelium (plural form mycelia) is the vegetative part of the fungus. In relation to the hyphae, it is the network collection or bundle of hyphae in one single place.oth the mycelium and the hyphae are responsible for a important part of a fungiâs body processes â absorption of nutrients and food from the environment. The hyphae in every mycelium or mycelia produce the enzyme for this purpose. The enzymes break the food or nutrients and other digestible forms.
