Symbiosis:
a close_________ relationship between organisms of different species
often requires organisms to live in or on others, in ________
Symbiosis:
a close long-term relationship between organisms of different species
often requires organisms to live in or on others, in physical contact
mutualisms (+/+) symbiotic interaction that benefits both species involved (obligatory or facultative)
_______: they have to do it
_______: choose to
example:
_______________
_______________
mutualisms (+/+) symbiotic interaction that benefits both species involved (obligatory or facultative)
obligatory: they have to do it
facultative: choose to
example:
bees fly from flower to flower gathering nectar as the food source that benefits the bee. In the meantime, the bee helps the plants to reproduce
shrimp and goby:
. The shrimp builds and maintains a burrow that both animals live in, and the fish offers the shrimp protection from predators.
facilitation (+/+) or (+/0)
the interaction between two species where a positive effect is incurred by at least one species, however, species are not in intimate contact with one another
black rush makes the soil more habitable since it reduces NaCL concentration and increase oxygen in soil
facilitation (+/+) or (+/0)
the interaction between two species where a positive effect is incurred by at least one species, however, species are not in intimate contact with one another
black rush makes the soil more habitable since it reduces NaCL concentration and increase oxygen in soil
parasitoid: _______
parasitoid: kill the host
commensalism(+/-): symbiotic interaction that benefits one species but neither harms nor helps the other species
epiphytes and the tree
commensalism(+/-): symbiotic interaction that benefits one species but neither harms nor helps the other species
oxpeckers and rihno
predation:(+/-)
one species (_______) ____ and ____ another species (______).
________ relationships are continually evolving
predator and prey:_________
predation:(+/-) one species (predator) kills and eats another species (prey). Predator-[rey relationships are continually evolving
predator and prey: lion and zebras
herbivory:(+/-)
one species east parts of _____ or _____
unlike predation, the plant often survives
for example:
habivorous feeding habit:
______
habivorous feeding habit: zebra deer hippos sheep goats
parasitism: (+/-)
________ in which one organism (______) derives its nourishment from another organism (______), which is harmed it the process
example:
_____ or ______ that live on dogs and cats are parasites. They are living off of the blood of the host animal.
parasitism: (+/-)
symbiotic interaction in which one organism (parasite) derives its nourishment from another organism (host), which is harmed it the process
example:
Fleas or ticks that live on dogs and cats are parasites. They are living off of the blood of the host animal.
Prey can escape predation through _______ and ________. In ________, several toxic species resemble each other. In __________, nontoxic species resemble toxic species.
Prey can escape predation through camouflage and aposematic (warning) coloration. In Mullerian mimicry, several toxic species resemble each other. In Batesian mimicry, nontoxic species resemble toxic species.
______-_________ by blending in with surroundings
cmouflage-concealment by blending in with surroundings
________ coloration-warning signal to the predator (prey may or may not be toxic)
aposematic coloration-warning signal to the predator (prey may or may not be toxic)
_______ mimicry-several toxic species resemble each other
Mullerian mimicry-several toxic species resemble each other
