How can lichens survive in habitats so seemingly devoid of nutrients and under harsh physical condition?
Lichens are one of the first organisms to colonise a newly disturbed area and are a part of the first stage in plant succession.
Like mosses lichens have a number of adaptations which allow them to survive seemingly nutrient free habitats.
Lichens, unlike vascular plants can grow with very little nutrients. There are enough nutrients carried in rain water and dust to allow lichens to grow on rock faces etc.

What is animal adaptation?
All animals live in habitats. Habitats provide food, water, and shelter which animals need to survive, but there is more to survival than just the habitat. Animals also depend on their physical features to help them obtain food, keep safe, build homes, withstand weather, and attract mates. These physical features are called called physical adaptations. Physical adaptations do not develop during an animal's life but over many generations. The shape of a bird's beak, the number of fingers, color of the fur, the thickness or thinness of the fur, the shape of the nose or ears are all examples of physical adaptations which help different animals to survive.
