Mistletoe is a parasitic plant that needs food from plants like the spruce to survive.
it is parasitic because, the mistletoe is benefitted while the oak tree is harmed
No, mistletoe does not show symbiosis but only display parasitism inthesense that it lives on another larger flowering plant. Mistletoe benefits because the host gives it support and raises it up to a position from which it receive sunlight
A symbiotic relationship is one that is beneficial to both parties. Lichen is a common example.Another relationship is parasitism, where one member extracts food from the other but offers nothing in return. Mistletoe plants are this category.And a third relationship is epiphytic, where one member takes advantage of position, but takes nothing from the host. Lianes, and perching plants demonstrate this.
I think the answer is that the spruce and the mistletoe is a partism relationship and the spruce lives on the mistletoe but i really don't know.
I need a symbiotic relationship with the PORPOISE..
One symbiotic relationship is cactus and lizard
The symbiotic relationship is mutualism
Oak trees and mistletoe. You can't have mistletoe without oak trees, and they seem to get along fine with each other.
