Explanation:

<em>Lichens are composite organisms that are formed from symbiotic relationships between fungi and cyanobacteria/algae. The Green algae layer offers food to the fungi by photosynthesis while the latter supplies nutrients and offers protection to the algal component. </em>

There are different types of lichen based on the growth structure:

Fruticose lichens grow upright and shrubby and posses either round or flat branches.

Foliose lichen appears like a leaf with upper and lower layers. They are usually flat or convoluted in nature.

Crustose lichens are small in appearance with flat, crusty growth on surfaces on which they grow.
