Red Algae: They are mostly marine. Gel forming substance like agar is extracted from this algae. Example: Geladium and Gracilaria
Lichens: Lichens are a symbiotic association of fungi and algae. Remember that particular lichen is an association of a specific fungus and a specific alga. Both benefit from each other. They grow on rocks, stems of trees, old walls and so on, and may be grey-green or brightly coloured. The fungus forms most of the plant body, absorbs water and nutrients from the surroundings, and provides these to its partner. The alga manufactures food from the raw materials and supplies it to the fungus. They are sensitive to the pollution. Lichens are sensitive to sulphur dioxide. Due to its absorbative properties they they can accumulate a large amount of sulphur.
