What is an example of mutualism at the park?
lichen - an association between algae and fungi
What is a association between a fungus and a cyanobacteria or green algae is a?
A symbiotic relationship between a fungus and green algae or cyanobacterium is a lichen. This occurs because lichen are composite organisms that consist of a symbiotic association to a fungus with a photosynthetic partner. In this example the photosynthetic partner is the cyanobacteria.
What is the organism that result from a close association between single -cell algae and fungi?
lichen that live in a symbiotic relationship. these lichen are pioneer organisms
Would you consider lichen to be a colonial organism?
In my opinion, a lichen can be considered a colonial organism. It has many organisms that are specialized to perform specific functions and it is in close association between fungal and algal cells. It meets the requirements for a colonial organism.
Are two organisms in the symbiotic relationships known as a lichen benefit from the relationship?
In many ways that I can't fully list.The fungus attaches to the rock and breaks it down into minerals both it and the algae need.The algae performs photosynthesis, providing carbohydrates that feed both it and the fungus.
Is lichen a cell?
Lichen is not a cell but a symboitic association between fungi and algae.

What of association exist between an alga and a fungus in a lichen?
Symbiosis. Sometimes it is a mutualism; sometimes it is a parasitism.
Is a lichen a parasitic?
A lichen is not generally considered to be a parasite.A lichen is composed of two organisms in a symbiotic association. They are a fungus and a photosynthetic partner, usually either a green alga or a cyanobacterium.

What describes a fungus plant root association?
it is an example of a decomposing relationship
A lichen is a symbiotic association between?
A lichen is a composite organism made up of a fungus and an autotroph. Lichens are commonly used in making dyes and perfumes.
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.
A plant that is a cross between a fungi and an algae?
Lichen is formed by a partnership between fungi and algae. Lichen is a specific type of moss that grows on rocks.
Is lichen living or non-living?
lichens are living and are symbiotic association of fungi and algae
