A organism living in or on another organism?
The term used for an organism living in or on another depends on the nature of the relationship.- If the relationship is mutually beneficial (mutalism) then the organism can be called a symbiont.- If the relationship does not benefit the host, the organism can be called a parasite.Parasites can be endoparasites, which live inside the host, or ectoparasites, which live on the host.Some biologists use the term symbiont for any organism in a close interaction with another. This would mean parasites could also be called symbionts.
How is life possible at high temperature?
Life on earth is widely related to the evolution theory. May be a living organism adapt itself to a high temperature which could kill another living organism.
