no fungi grows on you and alge grows in the water
Actually, I disagree with the above answer, so I'm improving. They do have similarities. Both fungi and algae prefer to live in moist environments. Both can range in size from a single-celled organism to much larger, multi-celled organisms. Both have haploid nuclei (only one chromosome instead of two).
What else can I help you with?
Is brown algae a fungus-like protist?
No, brown algae are not fungus-like protists. Brown algae are a type of multicellular, photosynthetic algae that belong to the kingdom Chromista, while fungus-like protists are organisms that display characteristics of both fungi and protists, and belong to the kingdom Protista.
What are the three categories for protists based on ways of life?
Animal-Like Plant-like fungus-like
Is it true that Lichen is the result of a mutual relationship between a fungus and an algae or cyanobacteria?
Yes, lichens are a symbiotic relationship between a fungus and either an algae or a cyanobacteria. The fungus provides structure and protection, while the algae or cyanobacteria photosynthesize and provide nutrients for the partnership.
How are lichens an example of a sybiotic relationship?
Lichens are a symbiotic relationship between fungus and algae or cyanobacteria. The fungus provides structure and protection for the algae, while the algae photosynthesizes and provides nutrients for the fungus. Together, they form a unique organism with characteristics different from either partner alone.
How do fungus and alga depend on each other for survival?
Fungus and algae have a mutualistic relationship in lichens, where the fungus provides structure and protection while the algae photosynthesize and provide nutrients. The fungus also aids in water absorption and mineral uptake for the algae. This symbiotic relationship allows both organisms to thrive in a variety of environments.

What is another name for algae?
Fungus
What is a combination of algae and fungus called?
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.
