Marsha is eating a chocolate bar that contains hazelnuts and other ground nuts. however, as the bar has a bad taste, she stops. on closer inspection of the bar, she sees a fungal growth around the nuts, embedded in the chocolate. what kind of a fungal infection could have infested the nuts?
saccharomyces cerevisiae
aspergillus flavus
candida albicans

The correct answer for the given question above would be the second option. Based on the given scenario above about a fungal growth found on the nuts in a chocolate bar, the kind of a fungal infection could have infested the nuts would be Aspergillus flavus. This is the kind of fungal infection that colonizes legumes and cereal grains. Hope this answer helps.
