Answer: the colonies of algae and fungi living together in symbiotic relationship : lichens.
Explanation:lichens are the representation of the mutualism or the symbiotic association of an algal partner called the phycobiont and a fungal partner called mycobiont. The phycobiont is responsible for providing the organic source of food prepared via photosynthesis. The mycobiont is responsible for the protection and absorption of the mineral nutrients. The lichens are perfectly suited to colonize a bare area due to mutualism. So, they form the Pioneer species of primary terrestrial succession.
Hence the name is lichens
