Review SYMBIOSIS And TYPES of SYMBIOSIS Species Interactions Review SYMBIOSIS And TYPES of SYMBIOSIS

SYMBIOSIS Symbiosis – a close relationship between 2 different species Predator/Prey Competition Mutualism Commensalism Parasitism

Species interaction Predation 1 – predator / prey; one eats another Video Competition – Two species fight over a single resource, one loses

Predation

Competition

Interspecific Interaction Symbiosis is a close relationship between two unrelated organisms Parasitism Mutualism Commensalism

Videos on Symbiosis Rhino / White bird Explain the relationship

Symbiotic Relationships Symbiosis- two species living together 3 Types of symbiosis: 1. Commensalism 2. Parasitism 3. Mutualism Cleaning shrimp

Symbiotic Relationships Commensalism- one species benefits and the other is neither harmed nor helped Ex. orchids on a tree Epiphytes: A plant, such as a tropical orchid or a bromeliad, that grows on another plant upon which it depends for mechanical support but not for nutrients. Also called xerophyte, air plant.

Symbiotic Relationships Commensalism- one species benefits and the other is neither harmed nor helped Ex. polar bears and cyanobacteria You can see here that this polar bear is no longer white.

Symbiotic Relationships Parasitism- one species benefits (parasite) and the other is harmed (host) Parasite-Host relationship

Symbiotic Relationships Parasitism- parasite-host Ex. lampreys, leeches, fleas, ticks, tapeworm

Symbiotic Relationships Mutualism- beneficial to both species Ex. cleaning birds and cleaner shrimp The Egyptian plover takes insects from the backs of buffaloes, giraffes and rhinos. The plover has also been observed taking leeches from the open mouths of crocodiles! In this association the plover receives a supply of food and the other animal rids itself of unwelcome pests

Symbiotic Relationships Mutualism- beneficial to both species Ex. lichen The Egyptian plover takes insects from the backs of buffaloes, giraffes and rhinos. The plover has also been observed taking leeches from the open mouths of crocodiles! In this association the plover receives a supply of food and the other animal rids itself of unwelcome pests

Lichen Mutualism = Fungi and bacteria – important for ecological succession. Eat rocks.

= 1 species Type of relationship Species harmed Species benefits Species neutral Commensalism Parasitism Mutualism = 1 species
