A

evenly or in a thin layer among the fungal hyphae

32
Q

what are the 3 lichen growth forms

A

crustose
foliose
fruticose

33
Q

Name this growth form:
flat
grow tightly appressed to substrate

A

crustose

34
Q

Name this growth form:
flat with leaf like lobes
not so tightly appressed

A

foliose

35
Q

Name this growth form:
erect
branched
shrub-like

A

fruticose

36
Q

how do lichens asexually reproduce

how are they distributed

A

use soredia that have both algal and fungal cells

wind

37
Q

how do lichens sexually reproduce

how are they distributed

A

use ascocarps and ascospores
wind
obtain algal partner by chance

38
Q

what does the photobiont provide for the lichen

A

food

39
Q

what does the mycobiont provide for the lichen

which organism is a bioaccumulator of atmospheric pollutants?
how

A

lichen

certain species won’t grow when there are high levels of sulfur dioxide and nitrous oxide emissions
