What is symbiosis? A symbiosis is an evolved interaction or close living relationship between organisms from different species, usually with benefits to one or both of the individuals involved. Symbioses may be ‘obligate’, in which case the relationship between the two species is so interdependent, that each of the organisms is unable to survive without the other, or ‘facultative’, in which the two species engage in a symbiotic partnership through choice, and can survive individually. Obligate symbioses are often evolved over a long period of time, while facultative symbioses may be more modern, behavioral adaptions; given time, facultative symbioses may evolve into obligate symbioses. Endosymbiosis is a symbiotic relationship, occurring when one of the symbiotic partners lives within the body of the other. Endosymbiosis can take place either within the cells (intercellular symbiosis) of the ‘host’ organism, or outside the cells (extracellular symbiosis). On the other hand, ectosymbiosis is a symbiotic relationship in which one organism lives on the body surface of the host, including the lining of the digestive tract, or exocrine glands such as mucus or sweat glands.

Types of Symbiosis

Mutualism

Mutualism is the type of symbiotic relationship wherein both species benefit from each other. Just like you and your friend helping each other for an exam, except the fact that you belong to the same species. A good example of mutualism is that of ants and aphids who support each other. Ants can transport aphids to new plants to eat, bring them inside the anthill when it is too cold, and protect them from predators like ladybugs. Ants do this because aphid poop is basically a sugar paste called "honeydew". Ants take care of the aphids because they can then eat the aphids' waste.

Commensalism

Commensalism is the type of symbiotic relationship where one species benefits, whereas the other species remains unaffected. If your friend will peep into your answers, it won’t affect your performance in exam, but it will definitely benefit your friend. A good example for commensalism would be the shark and remora fish. When the shark feeds on small fishes it might leave leftovers, which is consumed by remora fish The shark is unaffected by this, however, the remora fish is benefitted
