How does soil form from bare rocks?
Weathering and erosion produce ever smaller rock particles which, when mixed with dust and decayed organic matter over time, result in different types of soil.
What is a basidiolichen?
A basidiolichen is any form of lichen in which the fungus is a member of the Basidiomycota.
How does lichen form soil?
it has a prcess that you should look it up some where else than here
How are fungus and lichen different from each other?
Both lichen and mycorrhizae are symbiotic partnerships between two different living things. Lichens are partnerships between fungi and different types of algae. The fungi partner supplies the water and nutrients and the algal partner produces sugar, oxygen and can fix nitrogen. The photosynthetic partner algae may be a bacteria such as cyanobacteria or blue green algae, or a plant such as green algae. They are usually classed as members of the fungi kingdom. Mycorrhizae are the fungus root partnership that develops in almost all plants both vascular and non vascular. It refers to the mycorrhizal fungus and the plant root once they have linked. There are about 5 or 6 thousand known types of mycorrhizal fungi which form fungus root or mycorrhizae with 95% of all plants. Some mycorrhizal fungi include ascomycetes and Basidiomycetes) and Phycobionts (Chlorophyceae ond myxophyceae).
What does herbivore eats?
plants... anything that is not an animal. Herbivory (as in herbivore) is a form of predation in which an organism consumes principally autotrophs like plants and other such organisms.

Organism joins to form?

How do plants form new plants?

What is a combination of algae and fungus called?
An algae and a fungus can form a symbiotic relationship into what is known as lichen. However, not all lichen contain a type of algae, a type of cyanobacteria and a fungus makes a lichen as well. Algae and Fungus (a.k.a.Lichen) associations may be considered as examples of mutualism, commensalism or even parasitism, depending on the species.

What consists of the mutualistic relationship of a fungus or either algae or autotrophic bacteria?
LichensA lichen (LIE kuhn) is a combination of a fungus and an alga that grow together. The alga actually lives inside the protective walls of the fungus. The resulting organism is different from either organism growing alone. The lichen is a result of a mutualistic relationship. But the merging of the two organisms to form a lichen is so complete that scientists give lichens their own scientific names.Shortened answer: Lichen
Does only one organism benefits from a lichen?
No. The alga and the fungus that make up a particular lichen exist in a true symbiotic relationship where neither can exist without the other. Generally, the fungi absorb water that passes on to the algae to be used in photosynthesis to create a carbohydrate food for both. So both organisms benefit from the relationship.
