Mutualism two organisms of different species existing in a relationship in which each individual benefits. An example of mutualism is a pilot fish and a shark. The pilot fish cleans the shark and the pilot fish is protected by the shark.
The pilot fish has been associated with and is often seen swimming around sharks, rays, and sea turtles, which are commonly referred to as the "Host Species" where it eats parasites off of and leftovers from the meals said Hosts.
It is know to give them a ride and a meal.
Mutualism between a shark and a remora fish is a symbiotic relationship where both species benefit. The remora fish attaches itself to the shark using a modified dorsal fin, gaining protection and access to food scraps from the shark's meals. In return, the remora fish helps keep the shark clean by feeding on parasites and dead skin, providing a grooming service. This mutually beneficial relationship allows both species to thrive in their marine environment.
As a matter of fact, Yes they do. Pilot Fish, shark sucker fish or Remora have a symbiotic relationship. The smaller fish get food and the shark gets cleaned.
fishs called remoras and pilot fish (for example gold trevally follow the sharks and are not eaten
The Pilot fish eat and clear away algae and other materials that may build up on the sharks skin, while the shark allows the Pilot fish to clean itself and eat up!
The pilot fish swims with the shark and eats lice, crabs and blood-sucking worms. In exchange, the shark provides protection from the pilot fish's predators. Remoras also swim with sharks. It is believed that the remora eats scraps of food left by the shark as well as parasites. There is some debate regarding the role of the remora.
Are they really buddies? Do they go play video games together ? Or is it an interdependent relationship that benefits both the fish and shark?
The whale shark, Rhincodon typus, is a slow filter feeding shark that is the largest living fish species. The shark is found in tropical and warm oceans and lives in the open sea.
some of the animals that show symbiotic relations are.....shark and pilot fish......remora and shark......e.coli and human.....then helicobacter pyroli to human. Also Truffles and Trees.
Shark is to fish dolphin is to mammal.
