Symbiosis pd 3Slide2
Crocodile and plover bird
The plover bird eats the food out of the crocodile's teeth and prevents it from getting infections. This is the plover birds main diet.
The plover bird gets food and the crocodile’s mouth is clean. This is mutualism.
Fun Fact
There are 13 different species of crocodiles.Slide3
A Zebra has 42 stripes per side
Zebras & Ostriches have a special symbiotic relationship
SUMMARY:
Mutualism
Zebras have poor eyesight and ostriches have bad ears(hearing) so they communicate to protect each otherSlide4
Rufous woodpecker
and
a Black Ant
The woodpecker lays an egg in the nest.
The ants guard the egg and the woodpecker guards the nest.
Mutualism
This is mutualism because both the woodpecker and the ants benefit from this relationship. The ants are guarded from other woodpeckers, and the egg is guarded and isn’t eaten.
Usually the woodpecker will eat ants and ants will eat bird eggs, but they both make an exception.Slide5
Commensalism, The tree and spider
The spider makes a web on a tree, it does not affect the tree at all, but the spider has a home, and a place for it to keep food.
It’s Commensalism , because neither of the animals are not affected.
The symbiosis Relationship is the spider and the tree.Slide6
SHARKS AND REMORA FISH
THE REMORA FISH ATTACHES THIS SYMBIOTIC RELATIONSHIP IS TO THE BELLY OF SHARK MUTUALISM BECAUSE BOTH
BY USING A SUCKER DICS ORGANISMS ARE BENEFITED. THE
ON IT’S MOUTH TO CLING TO SHARK IS BEING CLEANED AND THE
THE SHARK’S BELLY WHILE REMORA FISH IS GETTING LEFTOVER
REMOVING PARASITES OF THE FOOD FROM THE SHARK.
SHARK.
A FUN FACT IS THE REMORA FISH IS
NOT A PICKY EATER SO IT WILL EAT
ANY OF THE SHARK’S LEFTOVERS.Slide7
Sloths
and Algae
The Two organisms involved...Algae, sloths and
Moths
Summary of symbiotic relationship...Sloth hair is long and coarse and depending on the species can contain either a number of grooves or irregular transverse cracks that increase in number and size with the age of the animal
What type of symbiosis is this? Mutualism
Why? Because the algae grows on the sloth’s fur
Interesting fact...
Fun fact; The two-toed and three-toed sloths are very similar in appearance, except that the two-toed sloths grow a bit bigger. Though they are similar in form and function, it’s thought that it may be a case of parallel evolution that has caused this as they aren’t actually very closely related.Slide8
Cells and Mitochondria
The mitochondria are like the powerhouses of the cell. They take nutrients and break them down to make energy for the cell.
The relationship is mutualism because both the mitochondria and cells are benefited.
The cells are benefited because they get energy from the mitochondria
The mitochondria are benefited because they get food from turning the sugars into energy for the cell
Fun fact: mitochondria have both DNA and ribosomesSlide9
Symbiosis between Lion and Vulture
Facts: lions
A male lion can run 53 MPH.
Lions live 10-14 years.
The male lion weighs 420 lb.
Lions consume a wide variety of prey, from wildebeest, impala,
zebra, giraffe
, buffalo and wild hogs to sometimes rhinos and hippos.
Facts: Vultures
Vulture are scavengers
Vultures are carnivores
Lion and Vulture
This is called
commensalism.
The lion kills and eats what it can and then the vultures come and eat what is left.Slide10
Symbiosis between bee and flower
The type of symbiosis is mutualism because both organisms benefit from the other
.
The bees get the nectar they need to make honey from the flowers. The bee brings pollen from one plant to another, resulting in pollination.
Bees do not purposely pollinate. They are just trying to get pollen for honey and then they accidently drop some pollen on the other plants.Slide11
Goby fish and Shrimp: Mutualism
FACT:
mutualism: Shrimp makes hole and blocks it up from predators
Goby fish warn shrimp of a predator because of bad eyesight
The symbiotic relationship they share is mutualism because they are both being benefited
THE BIGGEST SHRIMP EVER CAUGHT IS 18 INCHES!!!!Slide12
Symbiosis Between Goldenrod and Eurosta Solidaginis (Goldenrod Gall Fly)
Symbiotic Relationship
The symbiotic relationship between Goldenro
d and
the Goldenrod Gall Fly is commensalism, because the Goldenrod Gall Fly benefits
from the Goldenrod, that is neither helped nor harmed by the Fly itself. The Goldenrod provides
a shelter and food for the Fly, which benefits from this, but the plant doesn’t die because the Fly uses resources from
the Goldenrod.Fun Facts
The Goldenrod Gall Fly is about 5 millimete
rs long, and creates
a 1-2 millimeter hole when it emerges.
Some predators of the fly are wasps, beetles,
woodpeckers a
nd chickadees.
Adult Goldenrod Gall Flies do not eat.
Wasps sometimes lay eggs into the gall, and when
the w
asp eggs “hatch”, they eat the Goldenrod Gall Fly egg or larvae.
Other galls include Elliptical Galls made by a type of
mo
th, and Rosette Galls, made by a midge. Slide13
Symbiotic Relationship
The symbiotic relationship between Bullhorn Acacia Trees and
Sting
ing
Ants
is mutualism. The tree provides shelter for the ants and food, while t
he stinging ants protect it from any animal that touches the tree, by stinging it.
Fun FactsA
cacia a
nts will attack basically anything that touches “their” tree, grasshoppers, caterpillars, deer and humans.
Acacia trees are usually found in the southern hemisphere. Bullhorn Acacia Trees, are mostly found in the Costa Rican rainforest.
Stink Bugs are mostly able to roam freely, since their stink wards off the ants.
Birds sometimes nest in the tree.
Symbiosis Between Bullhorn Acacia Trees and Acacia AntsSlide14
the barnacles are benefiting and the whales are not being harmed
SYMBIOSIS
FUN FACT
Barnacles are believed to be one of the oldest surviving animals on Earth
Barnacles and Whales
The whales are acting as an enormous bodyguard for the barnacles and the barnacles protect the whale like a suit of armour Slide15
CLOWNFISH AND SEA ANEMONE
Mutualism
both are benefiting
some people think though that it’s commensalism
*Sea anemones can benefit from clownfish, by cleaning the parasites of of them also providing nutrients from their droppings.
*Clownfish also will benefit from sea anemone, who can provide food scraps and venomous tentacles protect the clownfish from any attack by other fish.
The sea anemone protect itself with its power to sting but has adapted not to sting the clownfish
mutualism
