The term that best describes the general relationship between 2 organisms in which
one benefits and is reliant upon the other organism, however the other is neither
harmed nor benefits, is
O 1) parasitism.
2) satellitism.
3) synergism.
4)
O 4) commensalism.
O 5) symbiosis.
Discuss the major types of symbiotic relationships.
of
3. Based on the picture
above, Explain and define what type of
relationship this is and give 2 examples of
why it is that symbiotic relationship by
discussing how each individual organism is
directly affected by the other
organism. Provide another example of
organisms sharing the same symbiotic
relationship as the crocodile and bird.

- Describe three types of symbiotic relationships.arrow_forward5. Symbiosis is an intimate relationship between 2 organisms: a host and its smaller symbiont. There are 3 types of symbiotic relationships as indicated in the table below. (+) = benefits from relationship, (-) = harmed by relationship Type of Symbiosis Host Symbiont Parasitism Mutualism +. Commensalism No effect Bacteria living in a human mouth exhibit a symbiotic relationship with you, their host. Remember that your mouth is teaming with many different types of bacteria.

- Define symbiosis and differentiate among mutualism, commensalism,syntrophy, parasitism, and amensalism, using examples.arrow_forward1. How do parasitic organisms overcome the difficulties they face in transmitting the next generation to a suitable host? They do so by producing resistant eggs or cysts. Parasitic organisms have a greater reproductive potential than do most free-living species thus increasing the chances of transfer to a suitable host Some parasitic organisms increase their numbers by reproducing asexually in the intermediate host making it more likely that they will make their way to a suitable host. Most parasitic organisms produce toxins that discourage unsuitable hosts. Some parasitic organisms increase their numbers by reproducing sexually in the intermediate host making it more likely that they will make their way to suitable host 2.
