Does a full DB backup include the tlog?

When a full DB backup is performed, does this include the tlog as well?  Normally tlog backups are done in addition and more frequently to a full DB backup I believe.  Ive not had to mess with backups much in the past, but I am now.

Reason being, is that for a SQL server I inherited, there appears to be a maintence plan setup that does a full backup already, but there are no seperate tlog backups being done.  Can I do a tlog backup to the existing .bak file that the maintence plan is using?
