English Comprehension

Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions that follow.

The discovery of penicillin by Alexander Fleming in 1928 marked a turning point in medical history. Before antibiotics, minor cuts and infections could be fatal, and diseases like pneumonia and tuberculosis claimed countless lives. Penicillin, derived from the Penicillium mould, proved to be highly effective against a wide range of bacterial infections. It revolutionized the treatment of wounded soldiers during World War II, drastically reducing the death rate from infected wounds. The mass production of the drug in the 1940s ushered in the era of antibiotics, significantly extending human life expectancy. However, the initial euphoria has been tempered by the rise of antibiotic resistance. Over-prescription and misuse of antibiotics in both human medicine and agriculture have allowed bacteria to mutate and develop defenses against these drugs. Today, superbugs—bacteria resistant to multiple antibiotics—pose a major global health threat. Medical experts emphasize the urgent need for responsible antibiotic use and the continued research into new treatments to ensure these life-saving drugs remain effective for future generations.

According to the passage, penicillin is derived from a:
