Lichen in the arctic region. Uummannaq, Greenland

Lichens live on various surfaces, such as soil, wood, and rock. They are often the first to settle in places lacking soil, constituting the sole vegetation in some extreme environments such as those found at high mountain elevations and at high latitudes. Some survive in the tough conditions of deserts, and others on frozen soil of the arctic regions. (Photo by Jeff Overs/BBC News & Current Affairs via Getty Images)
