Answer
Lichen
Reason — A lichen is a perfect example of a symbiotic relationship (two organisms living together and benefiting each other). Algae makes food by photosynthesis. Fungi provides shelter, protection, and absorbs water.
Algae, Bacteria, Fungi are individual organisms, not necessarily living in a mutually beneficial partnership in this context.
