Lichens are 'dual organisms.' Every lichen is a partnership between members of two different kingdoms which live together in a special, mutually beneficial relationship (a symbiosis). Each lichen is made up of a fungus (usually an ascomycete) and an alga (green or blue-green).
In mutualism, both organisms benefit from the relationship. ... 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.
