David’s comment: Logically not a match made by heaven. Cyanobacteria are in the ocean as are mollusks. They naturally fell together for mutual benefit.

dhw: Delighted to read your comment. A fine example of cooperation, and if your God did not reach down from heaven, or did not plant instructions in the first cells, I would suggest that maybe the barnacles and the cyanobacteria worked this arrangement out for themselves. Rather intelligent of them, don’t you think?

No real intelligence. Just practical adaptation with mutual benefit.
