Mutualism - PowerPoint PPT Presentation


Understanding Symbiotic Relationships in Nature

Symbiotic relationships are close interactions between different species, where each member benefits in various ways. Examples include mutualism, where both organisms benefit, and commensalism, where one benefits without harming the other. Ectosymbiosis and endosymbiosis describe how organisms live
