It's not really a relationship so much a category. There's 3 symbiotic relationships. Mutualism, Commensalism, and Parisitism. Mutualism means both organisms involved get something out of it. Commensalism means one gets something good out of it, while the other gets nothing. Parisitism is when one gets something good, while the other is harmed.

  • Within an ecosystem, there are thousands of organisms that live in a constant relationship with their environment. Relationships also develop among them which can be positive or negative depending on the type of objective/need assumed by each one of them. A negative relationship (predation of parasitism) happens when one of the organisms gets the bigger share of the benefit in the relationship, that is to say, the association is destructive for one of its members
  • Animal-animal relationships-The Egyptian Plover bird and the crocodile. You might think that if a bird landed in the mouth of a crocodile, the crocodile would eat it
  • Animal-plant relationships-Bees and flowers. You are all probably familiar with the idea that bees and flowers have some kind of relationship.
  • Plant--plant relationships-Lichen. The first time you see lichen, you may be surprised that it is alive! It can be flat and not very obvious; it almost looks like a discoloration on a rock.
  • Human-bacteria relationships-Your intestine and bacteria. You might wonder how you can have your very own symbiotic relationship going on right now and not know it.

Symbiosis is two unlike organisms living together in a relationship that may or may not benefit both. An example is the cattle egret, a bird that eats insects which have been disturbed when cattle graze.
