1 Marine Bio- Day 5&6 Drill: What are some abiotic and biotic factors that would affect organisms in a salt water fish tank? Outcome: Define the different relationships between marine organisms. Compare marine symbiotic relationships. Agenda: Discuss interactions between marine organisms Begin Aquarium Project

2 Competition What is Competition? When two or more species compete for the same resource. Ex. Living space, food, mates, light There are two types of competition: Intraspecific - within one species Interspecific - between species

3 Competitive Exclusion What is Competitive Exclusion? When a less successful species is replaced by a more successful one. This happens often when an invasive species appears.

4 Symbiosis Symbiosis - ecological relationship between the individuals of two (or more) different species Four examples of symbiosis: 1)Parasitism – One benefits, the other is harmed (+, - ) 2)Commensalism – One benefits, the other is neither helped nor harmed ( +, O ) 3)Mutualism – Both benefit ( +, + ) 4)Predator/Prey – One hunts and kills the other (+, - )

5 Parasitism Examples Grouper Fish with a parasite Cymothoid isopod and a snapper fish

6 Commensalism Examples Pearl fish and a sea cucumber Shark with a remora fish Remora fish

7 Mutualism Examples Boxer Crab and anemone Clown Fish and anemone

8 Predator/Prey Examples Great White and seal Orcas and seal

9 Symbiotic Worksheet Read the 6 scenarios and determine if they are M: Mutualism, P: Parasitism, or C: Commensalism On the back explain why you chose each answer. Aquarium Project When finished place in the turn in bin and pick up a rubric and information sheet for the Aquarium Project Look over the rubric and be ready to discuss the project
