Calvin Willis, who was released from state custody Friday after DNA testing showed he didn't rape a 10-year-old girl, said he's thankful for his freedom but needs money to survive in society. I think I should be compensated, Willis said during a press conference at the Innocence Project New Orleans.
A lichen is not a single organism. Rather, it is a symbiosis between different organisms-a fungus and an alga or cyanobacterium. Cyanobacteria are sometimes still referred to as 'blue-green algae', though they are quite distinct from the algae.
Lichens are bizarre organisms and no two are alike. Lichens are a complex life form that is a symbiotic partnership of two separate organisms, a fungus and an alga. The dominant partner is the fungus, which gives the lichen the majority of its characteristics, from its thallus shape to its fruiting bodies.The alga can be either a green alga or a blue-green alga, otherwise known as cyanobacteria. Many lichens will have both types of algae.ichens are another such partnership for fungi to gain nutrients from another organism. The algal partner photosynthesizes and provides food for the fungus, so it can grow and spread.
