   Mushrooms communicate with each other

   Mushrooms communicate with each other using up to 50 "words",   
   scientist claims   
      
   Professor theorises electrical impulses sent by mycological organisms   
   could be similar to human language   
      
      
   Buried in forest litter or sprouting from trees, fungi might give the   
   impression of being silent and relatively self-contained organisms,   
   but a new study suggests they may be champignon communicators.   
      
   Mathematical analysis of the electrical signals fungi seemingly send   
   to one another has identified patterns that bear a striking structural   
   similarity to human speech.   
      
   Previous research has suggested that fungi conduct electrical impulses   
   through long, underground filamentous structures called hyphae -   
   similar to how nerve cells transmit information in humans.
