What are the 6 ecological relationship that exist in the ecosystem?

Answer 1

MUTUALISM: both living together with mutual benefit or both organisms benefited.

PREDATION: The species was eating another organisms( their prey)

PARASITISM: where in one organism is harmed and the other is benefited, the one that is harmed may die and the one benefited is a parasite.

COMMENSALISM: where in only one of the organisms is benefited and the other is unaffected.

COMPETITION: In which the organisms compete for each other to live.

Answer 2

Ecological Relationship:

Mutualism:

Mutualism is the way two organisms of different species biologically interact in a relationship in which each individual derives a fitness benefit. Similar interactions within a species are known as co-operation. Mutualism can be contrasted with interspecific competition, in which each species experiences reduced fitness, and exploitation, or parasitism, in which one species benefits at the expense of the other. Mutualism is a type of symbiosis. Symbiosis is a broad category, defined to include relationships that are mutualistic, parasitic, or commensal. Mutualism is only one type.

A well known example of mutualism is the relationship between ungulates (such as cows) and bacteria within their intestines. The ungulates benefit from the cellulase produced by the bacteria, which facilitates digestion; the bacteria benefit from having a stable supply of nutrients in the host environment.

Competition:

Competition is the interaction between two or more organisms, or groups of organisms, that use a common resource in short supply. There can be competition between members of the same species and competition between members of different species. Competition invariably results in a reduction in the numbers of one or both competitors, and in evolution contributes both to the decline of certain species and to the evolution of adaptations.

Commensalism:

Commensalism is a class of relationship between two organisms where one organism benefits but the other is neutral (there is no harm or benefit). There are two other types of association: mutualism (where both organisms benefit) and parasitism (one organism benefits and the other one is harmed). Commensalism is harder to demonstrate than parasitism and mutualism, for it is easier to show a single instance whereby the host is affected, than it is to prove or disprove that possibility. Often, a detailed investigation will show that the host indeed has become affected by the relationship.
