What is a symbiotic relationship relationship in which one organism benefits and the other is not affected?
commesalism
What are some examples of commesalism?
Commensalism, which is a form of symbiosis in which neither party does the other much good or much harm, is rather rare and hard to declare. The usual example is that of the shark and the remora. But although the remora doesn't feed on the shark (which would make it a parasite), it does hamper the shark by increasing the drag on it. If the remora helped the shark find its food, it might be in a case of mutualism, but it doesn't, so it's a "commensal" (the word means "at the same table") almost be default.
Interactions in the taiga biome?
Agriculture in the taiga is challenging due to its short growing season and poor soils. Some subsistence farming and agroforestry practices exist, but it is predominantly a region for forestry rather than traditional agriculture.
What is a symbiotic relationship in which one organism benefits an the other is not affected?
You know how the clown fish gets protected by the sea anenome and free shelter? The sea anenome doesn't gain anything. This is what is known as commensalism symbiosis (symbiosis where one or more organisms gain something while the other[s] are unaffected).
What type of sybiotic relationship does a orchid and tree have?
it is commensalism because the tree has a place to grow but nothing happens to the orchid. The symbiotic relationship depends on what orchid. A fungus dependent terrestrial Orchid like Dipodium punctatum (or the hyacinth orchid), has a certain relationship between a type of tree because of a certain fungi that lives in the ground off that tree. It is only that certain type of fungi that Dipodium punctatum can live on because the species of orchid has no leaves, and so lives off the fungus through it's root system.
