Algae are autotrophs, which means they bring new energy into the system. Fungi are heterotrophs. They function as parasites that regulate populations and as decomposers that release energy and nutrients stored in organic matter.
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.
Lichens are organisms that exemplify a symbiotic relationship between algae and fungi. The fungi provide structure and protection, while the algae provide nutrients through photosynthesis. Together, they form a unique and cohesive organism that can survive in diverse environments.
The symbiotic relationship between fungi and blue-green algae is called lichen. In this relationship, the fungi provide a protective shelter for the algae, while the algae produce food through photosynthesis that benefits both organisms. This mutualistic partnership allows lichens to thrive in a variety of environments.
False
neither. algae, bacteria and fungi are all separate groups of classification
its a type of fungi
mushroom is a fungi while seaweed is a algae
mushroom is a fungi while seaweed is a algae
Algae is autotrophic while fungi is not. Therefore fungi does not make food by itself as does algae.
Algae is a type of plant found in coastal areas. Fungi are basically mushrooms. Athlete's foot is a type of fungus disease.

Algae performs photosynthesis to make food for both of them. Fungi absorbs nutrients for both of them. mutualism (both benefit).

It is called a lichen.
