Summary Introduction

Introduction:

Fungi are typical eukaryotic cells that are heterotrophs and saprobes. They are decomposers of plant and animal debris in the environment, and some are sources of antibiotics. Algae are unicellular or colonial eukaryotic microbes that don’t have a tissue-level organization. They are major contributors of oxygen in the atmosphere and important component of the aquatic food web. Algae have bright colours due to the presence of different pigments.
