Lichen is the symbiotic association of a fungus (the mycobiont, which provides shelter and structure for the partnership or symbiosis), with an alga or cyanobacterium (the photobiont, also known as the phycobiont, which provides the food for the partnership from photosynthesis).
The fungus and the alga components cannot survive alone in the environment in which the lichen symbiosis thrives.
Lichen is a type of plant that is usually found in the Tundra. It also is a type of fungi.
A lichen is a symbiosis of a fungus and a photosynthetic organism, either a type of bacteria or a plant. The fungus provides protection for the photosynthetic joint of its being, and the bacteria provides energy for the fungus.
A simple slow-growing plant that typically forms a low crustlike, leaflike, or branching growth on rocks, walls, and trees.
Lichens are composite plants consisting of a fungus that contains photosynthetic algal cells. Their classification is based upon that of the fungal partner, which in most cases belongs to the subdivision Ascomycotina, and the algal partners are either green algae or cyanobacteria. Lichens obtain their water and nutrients from the atmosphere and can be sensitive indicators of atmospheric pollution.
Lichen are plants having vegetative body of an alga and fruiting body of a fungus. the association of algae and fungi forms organisms called Lichens. Their presence is an indicator of healthy air.
Litchen is a dual organism which is made up of fungus and alga, Associated in a mutually beneficial association.
Yes, Lichen is a dual organism which is made up of fungus and alga, Associated in a mutually beneficial association.
All Lichen is a combination of Algae and Fungi
Don't know you tell me. If you need to know the answer then look in your book. How an you you going to learn without a book and learning it yourself? Shame on you people.
Not entirely. A lichen is a composite organism consisting of a symbiotic relationship between algae and a fungus.
Lichen is a dual organism which is made of a fungus and an alga, associated in a mutually beneficial association.
Wolf lichen, British soldier lichen, or Christmas lichen. These are a few of many.
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.

Lichen is formed by a partnership between fungi and algae. Lichen is a specific type of moss that grows on rocks.

An itchy rash normally on the outer layer of the epidermis that can occur on a persons genitals,mouth,head, and even a persons phalanges.
They survive on presence of pollutants, more the pollutant more the lichen and vice versa.

No lichen is not a producer because it is a decomposer?
Bai Lichen was born in 1941.
Trouble with Lichen was created in 1960.
