Relationship:
Nitrogen is a major component of chlorophyll, the compound plants utilize for photosynthesis. Trees and bushes both rely on the soil for nitrogen and nutrients, drawing from the same limited supply. Since this resource is very limited, each plant must secure enough to support its growth and survival. Without enough nitrogen, trees and bushes become weak, do not grow as quickly, and lose leaves.
Trees:
Bushes:
Relationship:
Birds and snakes prey upon frogs in tropical rainforests. To avoid predators, frogs will hide between the leaves of plants. The plants are not affected nor harmed by the presence of the frogs.
Tapeworm and animals: Tapeworms attach themselves to the insides of the intestines of animals such as cows, pigs, and humans. Tapeworms get food from the host (animal) and the animal loses nutrients and becomes sick.
This symbiotic relationship is an example of __________________.
Scorpions and mice: Scorpions have a venomous stinger that is on their tail. They use this stinger to catch and kill their prey, an example being mice. After they kill their prey, they eat them for their nutrients.
What symbiotic relationship is present between these organisms?
Treehoppers are bugs that chew holes in live oak tree branches in order to suck out sap (sugar-rich juices) from the phloem of the tree.
Oak trees need this sap in order to produce buds for growth.

Aphids are small insects that produce honeydew (a sugar-rich liquid).
Ants eat honeydew produced by aphids and in return the ants protect the small aphids from predators such as ladybugs.

Sea lamprey have suction cup mouths they use to attach onto a fish.
They dig their teeth into the flesh of the fish for grip, remove their scales, and consume nourishment (nutrients) from the fish. The fish does not die from this but gradually weakens over time.
