    Symbiosis refers to the interdependent relationship between different species. There are three main types of symbiosis - mutualism, in which both species benefit; commensalism, where one benefits and the other is not harmed; and parasitism, where one benefits and the other is harmed. Organisms interact with each other in ecosystems through symbiotic and other relationships in order to acquire food, shelter, and other needs to survive.

    SYMBIOSIS:

    Interdependence of Living Organism


    The Symbiotic Relationship Song
    What is symbiosis?

    Symbiosis (greek symbioun, “to


    live together”), in biology, term for
    the interdependence of different
    species, which are sometimes
    called symbionts.
    There are three main types of
    symbiosis, based upon the specific
    relationship between the species
    involved: mutualism, parasitism,
    and commensalism.
    Interdependence of Living
    Organism
    Organisms living together in an
    ecosystem depend upon one another
    in order to survive. They interact in a
    number of ways to enable them to
    acquire food, shelter, protection,
    support and transportation.
    Types of Symbiosis
    • Commensalism
    • Mutualism
    • Parasitism
    • Cooperation
    • Competition
    • Predation
    Commensalism

    It is a relationship in which one


    organism is benefited, but the
    other is not harm.
    Mutualism

    It is a relationship in which both


    organisms are benefited, such
    they become mutually
    dependent upon each other.
    Parasitism

    It is a relationship in which the

    parasite is benefited ,but the host


    may be harm.
    Cooperation

    It refers the beneficial interaction


    of the same kind of organisms. The
    organisms, however, do not become
    dependent on one another.
    Competition

    It occurs when both organisms


    having the same needs live in the
    same area.
    Predation

    It is a relationship between
    the predator and its prey. The
    predator injures the prey.
    Organism in
    Symbiotic Relationship

    Symbionts

    Host
    Symbionts
    Are animals or plants living in
    close and often mutually beneficial
    association with another of a
    different species.
    Host
    A human, animal, plant, or other
    organism in or on which another
    organism, especially a parasite,
    lives.
    Summary

    Organisms living together in an


    ecosystem depend upon one another
    in order to survive. They interact to
    each other for them to acquire their
    needs. Many relationships are
    symbiotic or they live together for
    the benefit of one or both.
