What is a symbiotic relationship in the tropical rainforest?
Symbiotic relationships in the rainforest are interactions between species in which the partners benefit. Symbiotic relationships are often broad, such as pollination of plants by insects in return for nectar.
What are some mutualism relationships in the rainforest?
In the rainforest, there are many examples of mutualism at work. Monarch butterflies travel in large groups to stay safe. Certain insects such as ants and termites rely on each other and work as a team to build mounds where the group will live, or hunt together to find food.

What two animals have a Commensalism relationship?
Examples of Commensalism
- Remora fish have a disk on their heads that makes them able to attach to larger animals, such as sharks, mantas, and whales.
- Nurse plants are larger plants that offer protection to seedlings from the weather and herbivores, giving them an opportunity to grow.
- Tree frogs use plants as protection.
What symbiotic interdependence is?
Symbiosis: A close relationship between organisms of different species that live together. Mutualism: A type of symbiosis in which both species benefit from the relationship. Commensalism: A type of symbiosis in which one species benefits and the other is unaffected.
What does mutualism mean in the rainforest?
Mutualism: Mutualism is a positive reciprocal relationship between two species. Through this relationship both species enhance their survival, growth or fitness.
What two animals have a commensalism relationship?
What are examples of symbiosis in the rainforest?
Mutualism. The relationship between the capuchin monkeys and flowering trees in the tropical rainforests is the best example of mutualism in this biome.
What is an interdependent relationship in the rainforest?
INTERDEPENDENCE AND COMPLEX SYMBIOTIC RELATIONSHIPS. Interdependence -whereby all species are to some extent be dependent on one another- is a key characteristic of the rainforest ecosystem. Biological interdependency takes many forms in the forest, from species relying on other species for pollination and seed dispersal to predator-prey relationships to symbiotic relationships.
