In a, the feeds on small invertebrates that otherwise have potential to harm the, and the fecal matter from the clownfish provides nutrients to the sea anemone. The clownfish is protected from predators by the anemone's stinging cells, to which the clownfish is immune. The clownfish emits a high pitched sound that deters butterfly fish, which would otherwise eat the anemone, making the relationship appear. Symbiosis (from συμβίωσις 'living together', from σύν 'together' and βίωσις 'living') is any type of a close and long-term biological interaction between two different biological organisms, be it,. The organisms, each termed a symbiont, may be of the same or of different.

In 1879, defined it as 'the living together of unlike organisms'. The term was subject to a century-long debate about whether it should specifically denote mutualism, as in; biologists have now abandoned that restriction. Symbiosis can be obligatory, which means that one or both of the symbionts entirely depend on each other for survival, or facultative (optional) when they can generally live independently.

Symbiosis is also classified by physical attachment; symbiosis in which the organisms have bodily union is called conjunctive symbiosis, and symbiosis in which they are not in union is called disjunctive symbiosis. When one organism lives on the surface of another, such as on humans, it is called; when one partner lives inside the tissues of another, such as within, it is termed. Diagram of the six possible types of symbiotic relationship, from mutual benefit to mutual harm.

The definition of symbiosis was a matter of debate for 130 years. In 1877, used the term symbiosis to describe the mutualistic relationship in.

In 1879, the German defined it as 'the living together of unlike organisms'. The definition has varied among scientists with some advocating that it should only refer to persistent, while others thought it should apply to all persistent biological interactions, in other words mutualisms, or, but excluding brief interactions such as.

Current and textbooks use the latter 'de Bary' definition, or an even broader one where symbiosis means all interspecific interactions; the restrictive definition where symbiosis means only mutualism is no longer used. In 1949, (1949) proposed an integrative approach, proposing a classification of 'co-actions', later adopted by biologists as 'interactions'. Biological interactions can involve individuals of the same species (intraspecific interactions) or individuals of different species (interspecific interactions). These can be further classified by either the mechanism of the interaction or the strength, duration and direction of their effects. Obligate versus facultative Relationships can be obligate, meaning that one or both of the symbionts entirely depend on each other for survival.

For example, in, which consist of fungal and photosynthetic symbionts, the fungal partners cannot live on their own. The algal or cyanobacterial symbionts in lichens, such as, can generally live independently, and their symbiosis is, therefore, facultative (optional). Physical interaction. Alder tree root nodule houses endosymbiotic. Is any symbiotic relationship in which one symbiont lives within the tissues of the other, either within the cells or extracellularly. Examples include diverse, that live in on roots; nitrogen-fixing bacteria called, which live in root nodules; single-celled inside reef-building; and bacterial that provide essential nutrients to about 10%–15% of insects. is any symbiotic relationship in which the symbiont lives on the body surface of the, including the inner surface of the tract or the ducts of.

Examples of this include such as, ectosymbionts such as the which attach themselves to the jaw of, and mutualist ectosymbionts such as. Competition. Document a mutualistic symbiosis between a and encrusting. A large percentage of have mutualistic to help them digest plant matter, which is more difficult to digest than animal prey. This gut flora is made up of cellulose-digesting or bacteria living in the herbivores' intestines. Reefs are the result of mutualisms between coral organisms and various types of algae which live inside them. Most land plants and land ecosystems rely on mutualisms between the plants, which carbon from the air, and fungi, which help in extracting water and minerals from the ground.

An example of mutualism is the relationship between the that dwell among the of. The territorial fish protects the anemone from anemone- fish, and in turn the tentacles of the anemone protect the clownfish from its. A special on the clownfish protects it from the stinging tentacles.

A further example is the, a fish which sometimes lives together with a. The shrimp digs and cleans up a burrow in the sand in which both the shrimp and the goby fish live. The shrimp is almost blind, leaving it vulnerable to predators when outside its burrow.

In case of danger the goby touches the shrimp with its tail to warn it. When that happens both the shrimp and goby quickly retreat into the burrow. Different species of gobies ( spp.) also in other fish, possibly another kind of mutualism.

A non-obligate symbiosis is seen in encrusting and. The bryozoan colony ( Acanthodesia commensale) develops a cirumrotatory growth and offers the crab ( Pseudopagurus granulimanus) a helicospiral-tubular extension of its living chamber that initially was situated within a gastropod shell. Many types of tropical and sub-tropical ants that have evolved very complex relationships with certain tree species. Endosymbiosis. Further information: In endosymbiosis, the host cell lacks some of the nutrients which the provides. As a result, the host favors endosymbiont's growth processes within itself by producing some specialized cells. These cells affect the genetic composition of the host in order to regulate the increasing population of the endosymbionts and ensure that these genetic changes are passed onto the offspring via vertical transmission.

A spectacular example of obligate mutualism is the relationship between the and symbiotic that live at and. The worm has no digestive tract and is wholly reliant on its internal symbionts for nutrition. The bacteria oxidize either hydrogen sulfide or methane, which the host supplies to them. These worms were discovered in the late 1980s at the hydrothermal vents near the Galapagos Islands and have since been found at hydrothermal vents and cold seeps in all of the world's oceans. As the endosymbiont adapts to the host's lifestyle the endosymbiont changes dramatically.

There is a drastic reduction in its size, as many genes are lost during the process of, and repair and recombination, while important genes participating in the DNA to RNA, protein and DNA/RNA replication are retained. The decrease in genome size is due to loss of protein coding genes and not due to lessening of inter-genic regions or (ORF) size. Species that are naturally evolving and contain reduced sizes of genes can be accounted for an increased number of noticeable differences between them, thereby leading to changes in their evolutionary rates. When endosymbiotic bacteria related with insects are passed on to the offspring strictly via vertical genetic transmission, intracellular bacteria go across many hurdles during the process, resulting in the decrease in effective population sizes, as compared to the free living bacteria. The incapability of the endosymbiotic bacteria to reinstate their wild type via a recombination process is called phenomenon. Muller's ratchet phenomenon together with less effective population sizes leads to an accretion of deleterious in the non-essential genes of the intracellular bacteria.

This can be due to lack of mechanisms prevailing in the relatively 'rich' host environment. Commensalism.

Travelling on a fly ( ) Commensalism describes a relationship between two living organisms where one benefits and the other is not significantly harmed or helped. It is derived from the English word, used of human. It derives from a medieval Latin word meaning sharing food, formed from com- (with) and mensa (table). Commensal relationships may involve one organism using another for transportation or for housing , or it may also involve one organism using something another created, after its death. Examples of metabiosis are using shells to protect their bodies, and spiders building their webs on. Parasitism.

Edition

Head (scolex) of is adapted to with hooks and suckers to attach to its. In a, the parasite benefits while the host is harmed. Parasitism takes many forms, from that live within the host's body to and that live on its surface and like mosquitoes that visit intermittently. Parasitism is an extremely successful mode of life; as many as half of all have at least one parasitic phase in their life cycles, and it is also frequent in and. Moreover, almost all free-living animal species are hosts to parasites, often of more than one species.

Mimicry. The secretes a chemical from its roots that harms neighboring plants, an example of. Amensalism is an asymmetric interaction where one species is harmed or killed by the other, and one is unaffected by the other.

There are two types of amensalism, competition and (or antibiosis). Competition is where a larger or stronger organism deprives a smaller or weaker one from a resource. Antagonism occurs when one organism is damaged or killed by another through a chemical secretion. An example of competition is a sapling growing under the shadow of a mature tree. The mature tree can rob the sapling of necessary sunlight and, if the mature tree is very large, it can take up rainwater and deplete soil nutrients. Throughout the process, the mature tree is unaffected by the sapling. Indeed, if the sapling dies, the mature tree gains nutrients from the decaying sapling.

An example of antagonism is (black walnut), secreting juglone, a substance which destroys many herbaceous plants within its root zone. A clear case of amensalism is where sheep or cattle trample grass. Whilst the presence of the grass causes negligible detrimental effects to the animal's hoof, the grass suffers from being crushed. Amensalism is often used to describe strongly asymmetrical competitive interactions, such as has been observed between the Spanish ibex and weevils of the genus Timarcha which feed upon the same type of shrub.

Whilst the presence of the weevil has almost no influence on food availability, the presence of ibex has an enormous detrimental effect on weevil numbers, as they consume significant quantities of plant matter and incidentally ingest the weevils upon it. Cleaning symbiosis. Main article: is an association between individuals of two species, where one (the cleaner) removes and eats parasites and other materials from the surface of the other (the client). It is putatively mutually beneficial, but biologists have long debated whether it is mutual selfishness, or simply exploitative. Cleaning symbiosis is well-known among marine fish, where some small species of, notably but also species in other genera, are specialised to feed almost exclusively by cleaning larger fish and other marine animals. Co-evolution.

Main article: (plants, animals, fungi, and ) developed by from a symbiosis between bacteria and archaea. Evidence for this includes the fact that and divide independently of the cell, and the observation that some organelles seem to have their own genome.

The biologist, famous for her work on, contended that symbiosis is a major driving force behind. She considered notion of evolution, driven by competition, to be incomplete and claimed that evolution is strongly based on, and among organisms. According to Margulis and her son, ' did not take over the by, but by.' Co-evolutionary relationships Mycorrhizas About 80% of worldwide form symbiotic relationships with fungi, in particular in. Pollination. Pollination is a mutualism between and their animal pollinators.

And the animals that them have co-evolved. Many plants that are pollinated by (in ), or (in ) have highly specialized flowers modified to promote pollination by a specific pollinator that is correspondingly adapted. The first flowering plants in the fossil record had relatively simple flowers. Adaptive quickly gave rise to many diverse groups of plants, and, at the same time, corresponding speciation occurred in certain insect groups. Some groups of plants developed nectar and large sticky pollen, while insects evolved more specialized morphologies to access and collect these rich food sources. In some taxa of plants and insects the relationship has become dependent, where the plant species can only be pollinated by one species of insect.
