Study Notes
Types of Symbiotic Relationships
- Symbiosis is a long-lasting, close interaction between different species
- Some researchers include predation, parasitism, and herbivory as symbiotic relationships
- Symbiotic relationships are essential for ecosystem functioning and species' long-term survival
- There are three types of symbiotic relationships: mutualism, commensalism, and amensalism
- Mutualism is an interaction in which both organisms benefit from the partnership
- Commensalism is an interaction in which one organism benefits and the other is unaffected
- Amensalism occurs when one organism is inhibited or damaged by the other, who does not benefit
- Antibiosis is an interaction where one organism secretes chemicals that harm the other without benefiting it
