The algal partner of lichen is known as phycobiont while the fungal partner is known as mycobiont.
While the phycobiont provides food to the mycobiont, the mycobiont provides protection to the phycobiont.
Though it might seem odd, lichens are actually both producers and decomposers.
Lichen planus is not considered precancerous, but some cases of lichen planus can increase the risk of developing certain types of skin cancer over time. It is important to monitor and manage lichen planus symptoms with the help of a healthcare provider to reduce this risk.
Yes, vinegar can be an effective natural remedy for killing algae. The acidity of vinegar can help to disrupt the growth of algae by changing the pH of the water, making it difficult for algae to survive. However, using vinegar to kill algae is best suited for small-scale applications such as removing algae from surfaces in a controlled environment.
Clotrimazole is not typically used to help lichen planus. Before trying anything you should always consult your doctor. They will have the knowledge of the types of medication you can use to help lichen planus.
Lichen planus is a recurrent rash due to inflammation. Mild symptoms often do not need treatment. Topical corticosteroid creams may help with itching or rash. Antihistamines may also help. In more severe cases, oral prednisone or therapy with uv light may help.
To be honest, in order to help you, we would need all of the information. But you need to know that a lichen usually only contains one algae, but sometimes they do contain two.
Okay. Firstable, there are 3 kinds of symbiosis : parasitism, mutualism and commensalism. If u want to understand it ezly. Paratism=one of them good others are super-bad. e.g.)tapeworms, lampreys whatever... mutualism=both of them happy e.g.)alga+fungus&linchens, birds commensalism=one of them is happy others not happy not sad (so so) the answer 4 ur Q is The association of an alga and a fungus in linchens is another example of mutualism. the nonphotosynthetic fungus provides moisture and support for the alga, which in turn synthesizes food for the fungus and itself. did u like it? i hope u did.
Lichen is a symbiotic relationship between a fungus and algae or cyanobacteria. They are commonly found on rocks, tree bark, and soil, and help in nutrient cycling and soil formation. Lichens are sensitive to pollution and changes in the environment, making them important indicators of ecosystem health.

Lichen. A lichen is a producer that is actually composed of two different species, a fungus and an alga. The alga photosynthesizes, while the fungus absorbs nutrients from rocks and holds water. Together they begin to break down the rock.

algae growing off of it supplies it with stuff to live and the algae gets help too:)

It is called a symbiotic relationship. These are very important in evolution. A lichen is made up of fungus cells for support and algae cells which fix carbon via photosynthesis. The algae and fungi species that make up a give lichen species are only found as lichen, they don't live on their own. This is a very tight symbiosis. An even tighter one can be seen in every eukaryotic cell. Mitochondria and chloroplasts are the result of a symbiotic relationship between prokaryotes(bacteria) and a eukaryotic ancestor cells. Mitochondria and chloroplasts have bacterial DNA, and the sequence is similar to some modern bacteria.
Penicillium was used to make penicillin which help people survive many infections.
Yes, algae can survive under a pool cover in hot weather, particularly if the conditions are favorable, such as warmth, moisture, and limited sunlight. Pool covers can create a warm and humid environment that encourages algae growth. Regular maintenance and cleaning of the pool and cover, along with proper chemical balance, can help prevent algae from thriving in these conditions.
