Neither, Cyanobacteria is a prokaryote. Animals and plants are Eukaryotes. They exist in separate domains of life.

Photosynthesis originates in prokaryotic cells (bacteria) and plants are descended from eukaryotic protists (green algae) which had formed endosymbiosis with captured bacteria.

How is a lichen different from a plant or animal?

A lichen is not a single organism; it is a stable symbiotic association between a fungus and algae and/or cyan bacteria. Symbiotic means any two life form that can only exist with the two life forms are together. There are many examples of this in the plant world, where a plant only have one pollinator and the pollinator only feeds on that plant. Like all fungi, lichen fungi require carbon as a food source; this is provided by their symbiotic algae and/or cyan bacteria, that are photosynthetic. The lichen symbiosis is thought to be a mutualism, since both the fungi and the photosynthetic partners, called photobionts, benefit.
