Lichens are the composite or dual organisms representing a symbiotic association between a fungus and alga. The fungal partner is called mycobiont whereas algal partner is called phycobiont. Algae prepares food for fungi and fungi provides shelter and absorbs mineral nutrient and water for its partner. Lichens grow on barren rocks, cooled volcanic lava and icy tundra soils. They can tolerate extreme dessication but not the polluted air.
