Symbiosis: A long term relationship between two or more different species. Symbiosis: A long term relationship between two or more different species.

Three types of symbiosis –- Parasitism –- Mutualism –- Commensalism
21
Parasitism: One organism benefits while the other is harmed. Parasitism: One organism benefits while the other is harmed.

73
Dispersive mutualisms: One species receives food in exchange for moving the pollen or seeds of its partner.
74
Pollinator – Insects transfer pollen from one flower to the next, insects gets nectar. Pollinator – Insects transfer pollen from one flower to the next, insects gets nectar.

Pollination – Insects transfer pollen from one flower to the next, insects gets nectar.
77
“Wow!” “Look how this flower has evolved to be white, and shaped in a way so I can visit it.”

Seed dispersal
81
Commensalism: One organism benefits while the other doesn’t benefit, or suffer harm. Commensalism: One organism benefits while the other doesn’t benefit, or suffer harm.

83
Gets food scraps, protection, and a free ride.
84

Ladybugs eat aphids. –-
92
Ladybugs eat aphids. –They’re vicious predators.
94
Check out that warning coloration.
95
Or is it just a mimic?
96
Crushing mouth parts
97
Really sharp incisors for snipping plants and cutting through trees.
98
Have long tongues to avoid dangerous plant ant mutualisms.
99

100
Burrow underground to eat tubers and the roots of the plants. (Naked Mole Rat)
101
Many animals (living and extinct) swallow stones. The round stones smash plant matter together in the stomach as it rumbles to aid in digestion.

103
Four chambered stomachs (many herbivores) –Uses bacteria to break down difficult plant matter.
104
Herbivores have gut bacteria that help them digest plant matter. The bacteria are fed plants, they grow, and then the cow processes the bacteria.
105
Take in plant toxins: You are able to eat poisonous plants.
106
Repair quickly and let them eat the non- essential parts of you.
107
Mechanical Defenses: Thorns and serrated edges, and sap.

Stinging nettles.
112
Chemical Defenses such as toxins: Plants become poisonous (nicotine, mustard, caffeine).
113
Be extremely hard to digest.
114
Think about celery, then be ten times harder to chew.
115
You have protective insects, birds, or mammals that attack predators. –You feed your friends a bit (mutualism).
