• The fungi extract food from the environment,
while the algae are photosynthetic.
– This is a mutualistic symbiosis.

 Mycophycophyta / Lichens:
 Fungi and algae (Protist) live together (symbiotic)

• Lichen: Algae and fungus growing
together in a symbiotic relationship.

• Kingdom Fungi Available Sheet.

• Please sketch a lichen “Mycophycophyta”

• Please sketch a lichen “Mycophycophyta”

• Lichens.
– It has some algae (Protist) in it.

• Lichens play an important part in weathering,
because they release chemical agents.

• Review for some! Weathering is the process
of breaking rock into smaller particles.
Creates Soil.

• Review for some! Weathering is the process
of breaking rock into smaller particles.
Creates Soil.
– Lichens release acid so that is chemical
weathering.

Rock after lichen removed
Rock without lichen on it

• The small bits of rock weathered from the
lichen begin to form an early soil base.

• Lichens thrive in some of the most hostile and
difficult places to survive.

• Lichens also exist as epiphytes, attaching
to living plants.

• Lastly, Lichens are indicators of good air
quality.
– They don’t grow in areas with heavy air
pollution.

• The three types of lichens
– -
– -
– -

• Crustose: Forms a crust, difficult to remove
without crumbling.

• Foliose: Leafy, can be peeled off rock with
knife.

• Which is foliose lichen, and which is
crustose lichen in the photograph below?

• Fruticose: Forms shrubby branches.
– Easily removed by hand.

• Which is fruticose, and which is foliose
lichen in the photograph below?

• Can you find the foliose lichen in this
picture dominated by fruticose lichen?

“This is called Old
Man’s Beard, and it
makes great tinder
for a fire.”

• Quiz Wiz, Name the type of Lichen. 1-10.
• - Crustose, - Foliose, - Fruticose.
• Crusty Leafy Branchy

• Bonus: What is the name of this character
from the Simpsons?
“My hair looks like
foliose lichen.”
“Arrghhh.”

• Bonus: What is the name of this character
from the Simpsons.
“My hair looks like
foliose lichen.”
“Arrghhh.”

• Sideshow Bob from the T.V. Show The
Simpsons.
“If I have to take
another Quiz Wiz,
I’m going to go
insane!”

• Activity! Going Outside to Identify lichens.
– Please try and find the three types of lichens
and sketch them in your journal.
• Please stay together as a group.

• Guess the hidden picture beneath the
boxes.
– Raise your hand when you think you know.
You only get one guess.
