Lichens are a partnership between a fungus and a photosynthetic partner. They both benefit from the relationship and therefore have symbiotic relationship.
There are a variety of ways that they do reproduce.
Many reproduce asexually or by vegetative reproduction. (Sort of like how you make a new plant using cuttings.) or by diaspores. The diaspores have both alga and fungal cells.
Most lichens do reproduce using sexual structures. A few use only these structures.
