SYMBIOSIS The Study Guide of Doom
Symbiosis is a: • close, long-term relationship between two or more species
Symbiosis is a: • close, long-term relationship between two or more species • Often at least one species needs the relationship in order to thrive • There are three types of symbiosis
3 Types of Symbiosis • Commensalism – one species benefits and the other is unaffected • Mutualism – both species benefit • Parasitism – one species benefits and the other is harmed (the host)
Simple Table of Symbiotic Relationships Species 1 Species 2 0 + Commensalism + + Mutualism Parasitism + -
