Question

discribe the term Symbiosis​

Answer 1

Answer:

The living together of two different species of plants as if they are parts of same plant and help each other in obtaining food is called symbiosis. This type of nutrition involving symbiosis occurs in plants called lichens. In lichens, the green coloured plant 'fungus' live together. The fungus hold the algae in its mat of web like hyphea. The fungus plant absorbs the minerals, water and food because only green plants which have chlorophyll they can synthesis food but fungus are non green plants which cannot makes their own food so in this process the algae shares food with fungus. Thus, both algae and fungus gain mutually from one another by living together. This is an example of symbiosis.

Answer 2

Answer and explanation:

Symbiosis is the combination of two Greek words 'Sym' means 'with' and 'biosis' means 'living', which means living together.

Symbiosis (pl. symbioses) means living together. It describes close and long-term relationships between different species e.g lichens

Lichen is formed from a symbiotic relationship between algae and fungi; algae provide nutrients to fungi and fungi protects algae from destruction.
