Fungi
Fungi live in symbiosis with microorganisms, higher plants and animals.
They form mycorrhiza with many plants (coexistence of roots or seeds of vascular plants with fungi) ...
Cosmos
The observable universe is estimated to be 13.8 billion years old.
The limit of error in the calculation is 21 million years.
Aurora
The particles that make up the solar wind, upon contact with the Earth's magnetic field, spiral along the lines of this field and collide near the magnetic poles with molecules of nitrogen and oxygen, etc.
They arouse them, and these, returning to the ground state, radiate energy in the form of light quanta.
