What does amanita phalloides eat?

Amanita phalloides, commonly known as the death cap mushroom, does not "eat" in the traditional sense as animals do. Instead, it obtains nutrients through a process called mycorrhizal symbiOSis, where it forms a partnership with the roots of certain trees, such as oaks and pines. The mushroom absorbs organic compounds and minerals from the soil and the tree roots, while providing the tree with increased access to water and nutrients. This symbiotic relationship is essential for its growth and survival.
