Is lichen a plant?
No, lichen is a symbiotic organism formed from a partnership between a fungus and either algae or cyanobacteria. It is not classified as a plant because it does not have roots, leaves, or true stems like plants do.
What is mycorrhizal association?
Mycorrhizal association is a symbiotic relationship between fungi and plant roots. The fungi help enhance the plant's ability to absorb nutrients from the soil, while the plant provides the fungi with sugars produced through photosynthesis. This relationship is beneficial for both the fungi and the plant.
Is a lichen a plant?
No, lichen is a composite organism of symbiotic fungi with alga or cyanobacteria (single cell plants).
Is a plant a unicellular organism?
No, they are multicellular. Don't confuse plants with yeasts and algae!!! Yeasts are part of fungi. For the most part, fungi are multicellular, but yeast is the exception to that rule for that kingdom. And fungi are not plants. The Kingdom Fungi and Kingdom Plantae are separate. Algae can also be multicellular or unicellular depending on the genus. And algae, which includes seaweeds, are not plants either! Algae are under the Kingdom Protista.
What kind of structure has a symbiotic relationship with fungi in mycorrhizae?
Mycorrhizae are symbiotic relationships between the roots of plants and fungi that act as extensions of the root system. The fungi supply the plant with certain nutrients, and the plant in turn supplies the fungi with carbohydrates.
Are yeast mushroom bread mold and algae fungi?
yeast, mushrooms, and bread mold are fungi. but algae isn't;algae is a plant.
Is the thistle a angiosperm?
A lichen is not an angiosperm because it is not flowering plant. It is a symbiotic relationship between fungi, algae or cyanobacteria.
What is the difference between algae and fungus?

What are lichens and mosses classified as?
Lichen is a symbiotic living between fungi and algae or fungi and blue green bacteria.Mosses are in division Bryophyta in kingdom Plantae
What are the difference between alga and fungus?
Algae are simple, photosynthetic organisms that belong to the plant kingdom, while fungi are heterotrophic organisms that mostly obtain nutrients from decaying organic matter. Algae have chlorophyll for photosynthesis, while fungi do not. Additionally, algae produce oxygen as a byproduct of photosynthesis, while fungi do not.
What encloses the cells of plant algae fungi and most bactria?
cell wall
Is lichen a plant?

What are the major division in the plant Kingdom?
Algae, ferns, mosses, fungi, flowering plants
What is smaller algae or fungi?
Algae are typically smaller than fungi. Algae are simple, plant-like organisms that can range from microscopic sizes to large seaweeds, while fungi are a group of organisms that include microscopic forms like yeasts as well as larger forms like mushrooms.
What is a plant that consist of both fungi and algae?
Definitionally speaking, if something is a plant, it cannot have a fungal component since fungi are not plants. However, a lichen is often considered by laymen to be a plant (even though it is actually a symbiotic relationship of two or more organisms). A lichen is the most common example of algae and fungi working together.
Are yeast and mushrooms and bread mold and algae all fungi?
Yeast, mushrooms, and bread mold are all types of fungi. Algae, however, is not a fungi but rather a group of photosynthetic organisms that can belong to various taxonomic groups including bacteria, protists, and plants.
What is mycorrhizal association?
Mycorrhizal association is a symbiotic relationship between fungi and plant roots. The fungi help enhance the plant's ability to absorb nutrients from the soil, while the plant provides the fungi with sugars produced through photosynthesis.
