How can fungus help orchids grow?
Fungi help orchids (and other plants) by providing water and nutrients. In orchids, specifically, the fungi associate with the seedlings. Fungal hyphae are much better than roots at discovering and absorbing nutrients and water in the soil (or whatever medium the plant is in). The water and nutrients are taken up by the fungus and transported to the orchid. If the relationship is mutualistic, then the fungus gets sugars in exchange. If it is not, then the fungus gets nothing.
Can fungi live in dry areas?
Yes, there are fungi that live in deserts as lichens. Lichens can also be found at the poles (which are also dry since cold air does not hold much moisture and there is not much liquid water in the soil).

How is fungi different then animals and plants?
Fungi is part of the Eukarya domain... Having more than one cell, and having cells with a nucleus. If their size doesn't tell you how much they differ, then consider the fact that Fungi are decomposers, feeding off plant and animal life, and bacteria have uncountable ways of feeding. As an added note, Fungi are stationary. Bacteria can move around.

Why is fungi not a animal?
Fungi and plants are different in several ways. Plants are able to photosynthesize (with a few exceptions), have a cell wall of cellulose, have a MLS flaglellar system with multiple flagella, and have vascular tissue. Fungi are not able to photosynthesize, have a cell wall of chitin, have a single posterior flagellum, and do not have vascular tissue. Fungi are much better at exploring the soil for water and nutrients than plants (which is why most plants have a symbiosis with fungi). Animals do not have a cell wall at all. As well, animals are motile whereas most fungi are not (chytrids produce a motile spore). Animals ingest their food while fungi grow into their food. Fungi can produce lysine, and animals cannot.
