Zweisporiger Champignon

The most widely cultivated mushroom globally, the button mushroom in its various growth stages — white button, cremini, and portobello — accounts for approximately 40% of world mushroom production. Domesticated from wild Agaricus species found in grasslands across Europe and North America, they are grown commercially in controlled environments on composted straw and manure. Rich in B vitamins, selenium, and dietary fiber, they are one of the most nutritionally versatile fungi in human cuisine.

Green Sea Turtle

The green sea turtle is one of the largest sea turtles. They are named for the green color of their cartilage and fat, not their shells.
