How does symbiosis benefit the organisms that make up a lichen?

Biology
1 answer:
enyata [817]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Each organism absorbs minerals produced by the other

Explanation:

Lichen is a symbiotic association between fungi and alga. The fungus is able to absorb essential mineral ions like calcium, phosphate and potassium better than the alga thus benefiting the alga. The fungus in return gets organic materials from the alga. The alga provides organic nutrients for the lichen through photosynthesis and the lichen provides protection from drying out because the alga lives within the fungus's cell wall.

The unit membrane is freely permeable to water molecules but very impermeable to ions and charged molecules. It is permeable to small molecules in inverse proportion to their size but in direct proportion to their lipid solubility.
