What are three examples of protist symbioses?

Answer 1

1. Mutualism is a symbiotic relationship that benefits both species, for example, microorganisms in an elks stomach beneift from having a place to live and the elk benefits by the microorganisms digesting its food
2. commensalism is a symbiotic realtionship in which one benefits and the other nor benefits nor loses, for example, and orchid growing on a tree trunk benefits by receiving protection, moisture and light, and the tree is not affected at all
3. Parasitism is a symbiotic realtionship in which one benefits and the other is harmed, for example, tapworms in humans benefit by receiving nutrients and the human is harmed by not getting any nutrients.

Answer 2

1. Zooxanthellae, a type of protist, form a symbiotic relationship with coral reef-building corals, providing them with nutrients through photosynthesis in exchange for protection and a stable environment.

2. Termites harbor protists in their gut that help digest cellulose, a component of wood, enabling the termites to extract energy from their diet.

3. Certain protists form symbiotic relationships with fungi to create lichens, where the fungus provides structure and protection, while the protist contributes photosynthetic capabilities to produce food.

Answer 3

Examples of symbiosis are:

Parasitism-one is harmed (host) and the other benefits

Commensalism -one is unaffected and the other benefits

Mutualism- both organisms benefit

Example of Parasitism:

Tick-deer

Example of Commensalism:

Sharks-remoras

Example of Mutualism:

Bacteria in your intestine- your intestine

Answer 4

What biome?

It depends where you are. In the plains a moose would eat grass. The moose benefits and gets food, the grass dies. You should pick a specific biome.

If you pick a specific biome

that would help alot

better

Answer 5

Cowbirds (and several other species)that eat the ticks and other small insects from cattle's backs...symbiosis; The bird gets food/the cow is rid of bothersome insects. Birds that "clean" crocodiles' teeth, as the crocs hold their mouths open. Croc gets a dental cleaning, bird gets fed.

Answer 6

Symbiosis is a close relationship between living things. Here are some examples:

• Lichen - the fungus and algae have combined to make one symbiotic organism and cannot survive on their own
• Mistletoe - this plant lives on another plant
• Nitrogen-fixing bacteria live among some plant roots to help them absorb nitrogen from the soil
• Clownfish and Anemone - the anemone protects the clownfish and the clownfish drives other fish away that might eat the anemone
• Bacteria living in the human intestine that help us digest food
• Goby (fish) and Shrimp - they live in the same burrow and the goby warns the shrimp when predators approach, then the shrimp protects both of them
• Tropical Ants and Trees - many ant species in the tropics have evolved with certain trees so that the ant lives inside of the tree and protects it from predators

Answer 7

the example of symboisis is a cat and a mouse

Answer 8

Coral coloring, algae and fungi forming lichens, and lichen secretion break down.
