Write some examples of symbiotic relationship other than regions in
Answers
In many cases, both species benefit from the interaction. This type of symbiosis is called mutualism. An example of mutualism is the relationship between bullhorn acacia trees and certain species of ants. Each bullhorn acacia tree is home to a colony of stinging ants. True to its name, the tree has very large thorns that look like bull's horns. The ants hollow out the thorns and use them as shelter. In addition to providing shelter, the acacia tree also provides the ants with two food sources. One food source is a very sweet nectar that oozes from the tree at specialized structures called nectaries. The second food source is in the form of food nodules called Beltian bodies that grow on the tips of the leaves. Between the nectar and the Beltian bodies, the ants have all of the food they need.
