Yeast is a type of fungus that grows as a single cell. Mould is a type of fungus that grows multicellular filamentous structures called hyphae. These tubular branches from a single organism have multiple, genetically identical nuclei.
The reproduction in yeast occurs by budding. Mould reproduces by formation of sexual or asexual spores.
