Not all
relationships between organisms have to do with food. Lots of organisms live
together and work together in many ways. This is called symbiotic
relationships.
The first
symbiotic relationship is mutualism. Mutualism is when both organisms benefit.
The way I can remember the meaning of mutualism is mutual is like multiple and
that means more than one, so that is how I remember that one.
The
second one is commensalism. That is when one organism benefits and the other
isn’t affected. An example would be an anemone and a clown fish the fish gets a
home and the anemone isn’t affected.
The last
one is parasitism symbiotic relationships. This one is when one organism benefits
and the other one is harmed. An example is when a parasite latches onto a dog
for nutrients from the dog.
These are
the different symbiotic relationships and how they relate to each other.
