The algae increase the autotrophy by offering photosynthesis to the fungi in the lichen organism.

A lichen is an organism consisting of a symbiotic association between a fungus (the mycobiont) and algae. The mushroom brings water and mineral salts. The alga produces, by photosynthesis, various organic compounds of which it gives a part to the mushroom.

A lichen results from a relationship between a fungus and a photosynthetic organism, which is based on mutualism. Algae is one of the photosynthetic organisms, and it can provide a constant supply of food to the fungus. The fungi provide a sheltered place for the algae to grow and reproduce.

Which marine pairings typically exhibits mutualism?
nikdorinn [45]
<span>I believe the answer is: clownfish/anemone

Clownfish is very territorial in nature. So, when they hide within the anemone, the clownfish would prevent smaller fishes from eating the anemone. In return, the anemone would prevent the bigger fish from reaching the clownfish when they hide in it.</span>

What are roles of producers, consumers, and decomposers in an ecosystem​
Daniel [21]
An organism that obtains energy and nutrients by feeding on other organisms or their remains. A food web is a model of the feeding relationships between many different consumers and producers in an ecosystem. Without plants (the primary producers) consumers and decomposers would not be able to live. Producers always start every food chain. A consumer, also called a heterotroph, is an organism that cannot make its own food. It must eat producers or other organisms for energy.
