A mutual relationship between two organisms, where both of them are benefitting from watch other is called: 1.Mutualism 2.Symbiosis 3.Parasitism 4.Food chain

The choices are: parasitism, mutualism, commensalism and none of the above.Definitions: One species kept alive to benefit the other species Answer Both species benefit from forming a symbiotic relationship Answer Neither of the species benefit from forming a symbiotic relationship Answer While one species increases its survivability, the other species neither benefits nor suffers from the symbiotic relationship Answer One species benefits greatly while the other species dies Answer
When placed in the same habitat, Paramecium aurelia will replace Paramecium caudatum. This is an example of: competitive exclusion. commensalism. parasitism. mutualism.
The golden jackal is an organism in nature that follows a tiger to feed on leftovers from the tiger's kills. The tiger is unaffected by the golden jackal, while the golden jackal benefits by getting food from leftovers. This symbiotic relationship is called: Mutualism Parasitism Facultative mutualism Commensalism

Some plants have fungi associated with their root systems. The plant provides sugars for the fungus; the fungus helps absorb water and dissolved nutrients for the plant.What is the interaction between the plant and the fungus an example of? 1.Mutualism2. Commensalism3. Parasitism4.Predation
Which of the following rows correctly describes the difference between predation and parasitism? Select one: a. Predation Parasitism The host species is killed to benefit the other species. The host species is not killed, but its life is barely sustained to benefit the other species. b. Predation Parasitism The host species is unharmed, and its life is sustained to benefit the other species. The host species killed or barely left alive to benefit the other species. c. Predation Parasitism The host species is not killed, but its life is barely sustained to benefit the other species. The host species is not killed, but its life is barely sustained to benefit the other species. d. Predation Parasitism The host species killed or barely left alive to benefit the other species. The host species is unharmed, and its life is sustained to benefit the other species.
Below are statements about symbiosis. Choose the correct responses. ( Only pick one answer per [ ] ) ["Commensalism", "Mutualism", "Parasitism"] is a term that describes when two organisms both benefit from a relationship. One example of this you will view is lab is ["Viruses Infecting Bacteria", "Yeast Fermenting sugar", "Bacteria such as Rhizobium living in plant structures called root nodules"] . ["Commensalism", "Mutualism", "Parasitism"] is a term that describes when one organism benefits, while the second organism is not harmed, and does not benefit. ["Commensalism", "Mutualism", "Parasitism"] is a term that describes when one organism benefits while the second organism is harmed. In lab you will explore ["Viruses Infecting Bacteria", "Yeast Fermenting sugar", "Bacteria such as Rhizobium living in plant structures called root nodules"] as an example of this relationship.
