Mushrooms, having been classified for a long time among vegetables, of which they share only few of distinctives (in this case immobility), they belong to the reign of Fungi or else funguses today.
Lichens The lichen is born in a narrow relation called symbiosis, between a mushroom or mycobiont and a seaweed or a phycobionte.

Monocotyledonous
seeds have a sprout in the single cotyledon,
leaves have parallel ribs!,
the elements which compose the flower (petals, sepals, stamens) are by 3 or multiple of 3 (axial symmetry by 3 ),
the stem keeps the same diameter all life.
Dicotyledon
the seed contains a sprout in two cotyledons,
leaves are horizontal (in general), in the ramified veins and in both different faces,
the elements which compose the flower (petals, sepals, stamens) are in general by 4 or 5 or their multiple.
the stem grows in thickness as it matures.
