Describe symbolisis in lichens |

Answer» A LICHEN is an organism that results from a mutualistic relationship between a fungus and a photosynthetic organism. The other organism is usually a CYANOBACTERIUM or GREEN alga. The fungus GROWS around the bacterial or algal cells. The fungus benefits from the constant supply of food produced by the photosynthesizer. |
