Almost all protists and fungi are symbiotic with lichens. These relationships are usually either parasitism or mutualism depending on the environment.
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.
A lichen is a hybrid of a fungus and an algae. In the arctic the lichen must be exceptionally sturdy. The algae providing the food through photosynthesis and the fungus extracts available water to forma symbiotic relationship.

Lichens are composed of a fungus in symbiotic union with an alga and having a greenish, gray, yellow, brown, or blackish thallus that grows in leaf like, crust like, or branching forms on rocks, trees, etc.
A lichen is a fungus that has a symbiotic relationship with an algae. Lichen can survive in any habitat and grows abundantly on rocks on sea shores, walls, trees or even concrete.
Lichen is a symbiosis between an algae and a fungus.
symbiotic(as in lichen)
Lichen is a symbiotic relationship between a fungus and a plant.
A lichen is a composite organism made up of a fungus and an autotroph. Lichens are commonly used in making dyes and perfumes.
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.
No. Lichen is a combination of a fungus and algae in a symbiotic relationship.
Lichen is a symbiotic relationship between a fungus and algae. The algae are the autotrophic component of this partnership. Green algae and cyanobacterium are types of algae commonly found in lichen.

One symbiotic relationship in the tundra is the one between the alga and the fungus. This relationship is known as lichen. The alga is protected by the fungus and the fungus receives food from the alga.
