How Do We Relate?

Relationships

• Many organisms have developed a close relationship with other organisms of different species.

• These close relationships are called symbiosis

• In symbiosis, one or both of the organisms can benefit form the interaction

Symbiosis

• There are three types of symbiosis:–Commensalism–Mutualism–Parasitism

Commensalism

• The relationship between two different species where one species benefits but the other is not affected.

Mutualism

• The relationship between two different species where both organisms benefit.

Parasitism
