AI overview

Lichens are organisms made up of fungi and algae living together, often seen as colorful crusty or leafy growths on rocks, trees, and soil. They're important because they break down rock into soil, provide food for wildlife, and serve as indicators of air quality since they're sensitive to pollution.

地衣類(ちいるい)は、菌類(主に子嚢菌や担子菌)のうち、藻類(主にシアノバクテリアあるいは緑藻)を共生させることで自活できるようになった生物である。一見ではコケ類(苔類)などにも似て見えるが、形態的にも異なり、構造は全く違うものである。
