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.
