Symbiosis




Two organisms living together, (most common usage:  in a way that helps both of them.)


 

Example One:

 

To an ecologist, there are five different kinds of symbiosis, but most people think of it as two organisms helping each other.

Paraphrase:

To an ecologist, there are five different relationships that living things can have with each other, but most people think of the one where two organisms are good for each other.

 

 

Example Two:

 

  Lichens are an example of fungus and plant which need each other to survive, which is a kind of symbiosis. Lichens are an example of fungus and plant which need each other to survive, which is a kind of close relationships between two organisms. .
