What is a symbiotic relationship in Antarctica that is mutualism?
An example of mutualism in the tundra is when the caribou eats shurbs and they spread it around through fecesAnswer: Lichen (any plant consisting of fungus) exist in cohabitation with blue/green Algae, both benefit from one another, this is called "Mutualism", the algae provides organic nutrients and the fungus provides minerals for the growth, from this union they become beneficial to all other organisms and growth appears.Please see related link below!
Can algae exist on other planets?
The only planet known to have life, including algae, is Earth. But it is possible that particularly hardy and very simple forms of algae (e.g. cyanobacteria) could survive on Mars, or perhaps somewhere like the upper layers of the ocean under Jupiter's moon, Europa.
What fungus acts as a facultative parasite?
The fungus Candida albicans can act as a facultative parasite, meaning it can exist as a commensal organism in the human body but can also cause infections, particularly in immunocompromised individuals.
What of association exist between an alga and a fungus in a lichen?
Symbiosis. Sometimes it is a mutualism; sometimes it is a parasitism.
Describe the symbiotic relationship that enables a lichen to exist?
Okay. Firstable, there are 3 kinds of symbiosis : parasitism, mutualism and commensalism. If u want to understand it ezly. Paratism=one of them good others are super-bad. e.g.)tapeworms, lampreys whatever... mutualism=both of them happy e.g.)alga+fungus&linchens, birds commensalism=one of them is happy others not happy not sad (so so) the answer 4 ur Q is The association of an alga and a fungus in linchens is another example of mutualism. the nonphotosynthetic fungus provides moisture and support for the alga, which in turn synthesizes food for the fungus and itself. did u like it? i hope u did.
What are the symbiotic relationship that exist of bird on top of the carabao?

How is a lichen different from a plant or animal?
A lichen is not a single organism; it is a stable symbiotic association between a fungus and algae and/or cyan bacteria. Symbiotic means any two life form that can only exist with the two life forms are together. There are many examples of this in the plant world, where a plant only have one pollinator and the pollinator only feeds on that plant. Like all fungi, lichen fungi require carbon as a food source; this is provided by their symbiotic algae and/or cyan bacteria, that are photosynthetic. The lichen symbiosis is thought to be a mutualism, since both the fungi and the photosynthetic partners, called photobionts, benefit.

Does only one organism benefits from a lichen?
No. The alga and the fungus that make up a particular lichen exist in a true symbiotic relationship where neither can exist without the other. Generally, the fungi absorb water that passes on to the algae to be used in photosynthesis to create a carbohydrate food for both. So both organisms benefit from the relationship.
