The Olive Baboon and the African Elephant have a mutual symbiotic relationship (Mutualism). The olive baboon inhabits 25 African countries ranging from the east and west coast of the continent. Their habitats are defined as the savanna‚ living in wide plains of grasslands. The African elephant can be found in many areas of Africa. Their main habitats are dense forests and woodlands. When the land gets dry and there is no water‚ the elephants are known to dig “wells” in the sand to create a

Distinguish between mutualism‚ parasitism and commensalism. Give two named examples of each‚ one of which must be from the Caribbean‚ citing your sources. Symbiosis is an interaction between usually two organisms of differing species. Symbiosis can be broken down into various types (Taylor et al‚ 2010) but for this essay only mutualism‚ parasitism and commensalism will be reviewed. Mutualism is a relationship formed between two organisms of different species which proves to be beneficial to both

Symbiotic Nitrogen Fixation 1. Rhizobium - Legume Symbiosis Many leguminous plant species can enter into a symbiotic relationship with root-nodule bacteria‚ collectively referred to as rhizobia. The legumes belong to the order Fabales‚ family Leguminosae (alternatively Fabaceae)‚ in eurosid clade I (Doyle and Luckow 2003). Traditionally‚ three main subfamilies are distinguished: Caesalpinoidae‚ Mimosoidae and Papilionidae. Only one nonlegume‚ the woody plant Parasponia sp.‚ can be nodulated

Symbiosis is the relationship between organisms and how they act. Symbiosis also means living together and they do this to avoid the competition for food. There are three types of symbiotic relationships that include; commensalism‚ parasitism‚ and mutualism. Along with the symbiotic relationships there are also two types of competitions; interspecific and intraspecific competition. Competition is when two organisms fight for the same limited resources. Commensalism is when there are two different

*Commensalism is a class of relationship between two organisms where one organism benefits but the other is neutral‚ there is no harm or benefit. An example of commensalism is a flatworm attaching to the horsecrab and eating the crab’s food while the crab is not affected. Commensalism *Parasitism is a type of symbiotic relationship

Ecology is the scientific study of interactions among organisms and their environment. In relation to The Lion King‚ ecology is the circle of life. Ecological succession can change a community by making exponential changes to the ecosystem over time‚ symbiotic relationships are important in maintaining a stable ecosystem because they provide competition‚ parasitism‚ mutualism‚ and commensalism to have balanced populations‚ and the impact of a change in the food web would be drastic to the
