This conclusion was made by scientists from the University of Bristol. They found that mushrooms exchange electrical impulses through the mycelium (mycelium). And the structure of these impulses surprisingly resembles that which is characteristic of human speech. The researchers counted up to 50 words. It is likely that such signals help maintain the integrity of the mushrooms - similar to how wolves howl to keep the pack intact - or communicate the detected food to other parts of their mycelium.
