∙ 15y agoA mutual symbiotic relationship is defined as this: A relationship in which all organisms involved benefit. That means that everyone in the relationship gets something out of it.
There are many examples of mutual symbiotic relationships all around you. Two common relationships could be happening right now in your backyard! Have you ever watched bees travel from flower to flower gathering pollen? That's a great example! The bee benefits by getting pollen from the flower that she will make into honey. Yum! The flower benefits as well. By having it's pollen on the bee, the flower is able to effectively spread it's pollen to other flowers, allowing it to breed and spread it's DNA. The other relationship is probably less known. It happens between ants and aphids. As you may know, ladybugs eat aphids, right? What the ants do is protect the aphids from ladybugs and other predators that the aphids have. What does the ant get in return? Food! The aphid regurgitates a sweet substance that ants like to eat. I could name lots more, but I think that this question is answered.
Ciao!

What are facts about estuaries?
Estuaries are partially enclosed water. They are were fresh water from inland meets denser salt water. They have complex food webs that start with the microscopic bacteria in the mud. Examples of estuaries are; mud flats, bays, mangrove forests, sloughs, inlets, salt pans and swamps. Estuaries are important ecosystems as they provide food and shelter to several species of organisms. In the last several decades, estuaries were being destroyed as they were prime real estate and there were greedy developers. Fortunately, legislation saved the remaining estuaries and they are now protected indefinitely.

How have mangrove trees adapted to life in tropical areas of the sea?
Mangrove trees have become specialized to survive in the extreme conditions of estuaries. Two key adaptations they have are the ability to survive in waterlogged and anoxic (no oxygen) soil, and the ability to tolerate brackish waters.
What are mangrove leaves?
Mangrove leaves refer to the leaves of mangrove trees, which are uniquely adapted to thrive in saline or brackish water environments. These leaves are thick, waxy, and often have salt-excreting glands to remove excess salt. They also have specialized adaptations such as sunken stomata and salt-excluding tissues that help mangrove trees cope with high salt concentrations.

What are the kinds of mangrove?
There are hundreds of species of mangrove. In Florida and the Keys the most common are the red mangrove, Rhizophoraceae, the Black mangrove, Acantacae, and the White mangrove or buttonwood, Combretaceae. Mangroves grow together along the coast lines. The whole group of them is called a Mangal. The Black mangrove grows furthest out in the water and has special breathing tubes. Then come the red mangroves and on higher land the White mangroves. Mangroves are very important for protecting the coast from erosion and creating new land
