Mutualistic relationship, Abiotic factor in an ecosystem, Symbiosis relationship, Commensalism relationship in ecosystems By: Taylor , Alyssa , Caitlin
Symbiosis relationship • A Symbiosis relationship is a long-lasting relationship in close association of two different kinds of organisms especially when such a relationship is of benefit to both. Symbiosis means “Living together.” The three main types of symbiosis are parasitism, commensalism, and mutualism. It is a cooperative relationship.
Commensalism relationships • A relation between 2 kinds of plants and animals in which one obtains a benefit from the other without damusing or benefitting it. • For example an elf owl makes its nest in a hole in a cactus. The owl benefits, and the cactus is not affected. In commensalism, one organism benefits and the other organism is not affected.
Mutualism Relationship • In mutualism, both organisms benefit. Cleaner shrimp, for example, eat parasites off fish. The shrimp get food and the fish stay healthy. This relationship helps both shrimp and the fish.
Abiotic relationships • The abiotic factors of the environment include light, Temperature, and atmospheric gases • Not associated with or derived from living organisms. Abiotic factors in an environment include such items as sunlight, temperature, wind patterns, and precipitation.
