Question

I am type of spice. I live with fungi and algae. who am I? in which nutrition type will you add me​

Answer 1

Answer:

Living as a symbiont in a lichen appears to be a successful way for a fungus to derive essential nutrients, as about 20% of all fungal species have acquired this mode of life.[4] The autotrophic symbionts occurring in lichens are a wide variety of simple, photosynthetic organisms commonly and traditionally known as “algae”. These symbionts include both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms.[5][4][3][2]

Answer 2

Answer:

Lichen is the answer. It is a symbiosis between a fungus and an alga. Fungus undergoes heterotrophic nutrition while alga shows autotrophic nutrition. Therefore, it performs both.

The kind of lichen used as spice has the scientific name Parmotrema perlatum, also known as black stone flower.
